    Hey guys. The rim is huge and misshapen. Any thoughts. Worth anything more then just the gold its self

    It's there. The quality went out of control.

    This is called finning of the rim. I don't know if it will command a premium, but it IS a Mint error.

    Very cool mint error! Is the coin still the correct weight?

    Its just uncirculated not anything pretty. That fingerprints will mess up. Plus its a gold coin... not a silver coin. Gold does not tarnish. At least thats what i read.

    Not anything pretty??? It is a beautiful gold coin. Does not matter if the finger print "tarnishes", it could look like a little greasy spot on an otherwise spotless coin.

    Not pretty compared to a limited strike ultra cameo proof.
