Helped a widow last year with husband’s collection. Had 2 of these gold issues mixed in with the silver items. They look funny since you don’t see them in commerce. It looks ok to me but I’m not an expert
Many unknowledgeable folk will think those gold commems are similar to the "golden" dollars, just worth $5 instead of $1. Of course the people that originally bought them know the difference. But in estates etc family members may not.
You paid less than you would have paid for these if you bought them directly from Littleton. haha What type of auction was this? Online? Or a local fundraiser auction where this type of thing can happen more often?
Love the simplicity of your ruler app, which one is it specifically ? Many to choose from on the app store and not finding yours. Thank you
I ended up selling the gold piece for $400. Recently sold the '64 for $15. I only used a app called Ruler as well. Money was used for Christmas and was great! Hope everyone was okay this year.
The differing mintages are for the proof and uncirculated varieties (both of which were minted in smaller numbers than Congress authorized because the demand wasn't there).
