<p>[QUOTE="Victor, post: 307722, member: 5454"]Ah Dan. I was wondering when you would get bit by the gold bug! The quarter eagle Indians are kind of pricy compared to some of the other pre 1933 gold coins. My local dealer has one with a nice story that I have had my eye on for about a year. It is a 1913 Indian graded MS-62 by PCGS. He wants $700 firm. The trends prices have actually dropped lately for this particular coin. Right now the price should be around $620 for a MS-62 Indian 1913.</p><p>Anyway this coin was in a NGC holder graded MS-63. The dealer cracked it out and submitted to PCGS. It came back MS-62.</p><p>Here's the rest of this entangled story: It seems an old man died leaving a nice hoard of gold. However there was a dispute about ownership because the coins were never paid for. The widow sent all the coins back to wherever they came from instead of paying the invoice. Well the stupid company sent them back to her. Then they kept billing. She just put the coins away and ignored the bills. Anyway this eventually came to a lawsuit in court. The judge ruled that the coins were hers. Because the company sent them back she became the owner and she did not have to pay a penny. Lawsuit dismissed. Now enters the family. The son and daughter takes the whole hoard to a dealer. There were both NGC and PCGS coins. Dealer cracks all coins out and whatever was PCGS he sends to NGC. Whatever coins were NGC he sends to PCGS. Hence this 1913 leftover described above. When gold was around $575 an ounce he wanted $700 for the coin.</p><p>Everytime I go back it is still $700. I went back just to check when gold hit over $800 and he still wants $700.</p><p>Someday I may grab that coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
