<p>[QUOTE="princeofwaldo, post: 2051632, member: 24091"]I'm sure Eliasberg had some nice looking and rare world coins, but most of the coins I've seen pedigreed to him are overgraded by a couple points and not at all that rare. Although in fairness, there have not been that many for sale recently. Going back about 6 or 7 years ago Eliasberg world gold coins would turn-up on eBay with some frequency, and I was surprised by how many were no better than XF but in AU holders. Even my MS62 really belongs in an AU58 holder and I'll be the first to admit it. There's all sorts of rub on the cheek that is skillfully concealed by expert photography (pic isn't photoshopped). If you tilt the coin 30 degrees you see a dramatic break in the luster across the face and bottom of fez.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]376878[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]376877[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
