[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1945091, member: 15929"]Not to be a Debbie Downer but when folks say things such as "There are only 4 in the World", I kinda wonder where they are coming from? PCGS Population reports show that 16 of this coin have been graded with the DCAM Attribution: 1 in 68m 11 in 69 and 4 in 70. PCGS Coinfacts says that there was a mintage of 50,000 pieces. The fact that "only" 4 have been graded at PR70DCAM out of 16 coins submitted means nothing when considering a 50,000 coin mintage other than "only 16 were submitted for grading to PCGS" With a ratio of 25% hitting the PR70DCAM Grade, I think it would be safe to assume that if 10,000 were submitted that 2,500 would achieve that lofty "award" which basically means, try to not consider this one as "1 of only 4 IN THE WORLD" since that is simply not true and could very well change upon another coin dealer submission. As for price, I'd wager that $379 is a bit on the steep side unless, of course, you're into this PR70DCAM thing in which case price means very little.[/QUOTE]
