<p>[QUOTE="Long Beard, post: 4100585, member: 108674"]Agree with physics-fan. It went unsold because it is way over priced. On the subject, striking high relief coins shortens the life of the dies tremendously creating many weak strikes and few full. Which makes grading extremely difficult when attempting it yourself on a raw coin. More often than not, an MS could easily be confused as an extra-fine on these. Which is why I strongly recommend third party grading.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
