I'm gonna call it. I paid $180 for the coin. The only reason I even bought that specific one was because of the toning, as I was looking for a slabbed, so I did (IMO) pay a "Toning Premium". It's a beautiful coin in hand! @jwitten is the winner! .....and @ron_c gets a pat on the back, and a lecture about not paying attention in class....

I'm starting to forget which ones I've posted, so no cheating if I already posted this one. I bought it raw, and sent it for grading myself. Also, this is one where I didn't love the trueviews. Did not capture the pop of the colors as well as I would have liked. I am posting a bunch of pics... the original auction pics (to help you decide what I paid), then the trueviews, then a few that capture the color better, in that order. So, what did I pay, not counting grading costs? AU coin runs $220-$260 or so. Seller pics: True view (and coin in holder) My pics to show the color:
$290 ...I also think you might have posted it before but I'm not confident. I'm also trying to remember what I guessed last time if it is a repeat...I wonder if my valuation has changed if so...
Watch the raw ones from unknown sellers who mistakenly do auctions. They sneak through there more than they should right around that price
