<p>[QUOTE=&quot;giorgio11, post: 1507930, member: 17094&quot;]Thanks TexasJarhead. My pleasure, this has always been one of my favorite coins even if I&#039;ll never own it (I was the high bidder for about 14 seconds after the S-B auction went live). Here&#039;s some more recent history. </p><p><br /></p><p>At the May 1996 Bowers and Merena sale of the Eliasberg Collection the coin fetched $550,000; in Heritage&#039;s April 1999 sale of the Waldo Bolen Collection of 1873-CC Coinage, the piece went for $632,500; later it sold in Bowers and Merena&#039;s August 2004 sale for $891,250.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
