Message:: [QUOTE="imrich, post: 1383621, member: 22331"]Hmmm! Interesting Very Interesting, as I don't believe that either the 1849 $20 gold pattern "PR64", or the 1877 gold pattern $50 "PR67"  have been offered for sale. How does one determine their relative values? I'm really not privy to all of the facts concerning these 2 proposed coin designs, but my understanding is that they aren't official coinage until approved for general release in the year indicated on the pattern. I would appreciate a correction if my understanding is faulted. I understand that the "PCGS Million Dollar Coin Club" has placed a relative value on these pieces of metal, but if their values are similar to other PCGS published suggested values, well enough said. I don't believe that "appraisal experts" generally have a reasonable objective basis for establishing the worldly value of patterns as these. I don't believe these "patterns" were ever released as monetary mediums of exchange. Until the "patterns" are offered in a worldly auction, logic would dictate that the $50 PR67 by proposed denominational value, (and perceived grade), is generally mandated to be of greater value than a 1849 $20 PR64. If you hear that the "patterns" are to be sold, please inform me, as I have a possibly interesting proposed wager for those who've established current relative values. In the mean time, I'll ignorantly maintain my understanding for value establishment until I can defer to those publishing additional facts of which I'm uninformed. I believe this to be an enlightening thread, of which I appreciate the objective contributions. :bow:[/QUOTE]
