<p>[QUOTE="RickieB, post: 134522, member: 2486"]Hey everyone, been away for a while..but lurking in the background. Been reading some nice post's and this one suits my latest addition. A friend that own's a coin shoppe in Alabama, (Loop Coin and Jewelry)</p><p>responded to a call I made asking if there was anything really good he had in stock that I could save for my son AJ. He sent me a 1875 S 20 cent piece to look at. It was raw, and had some of the nicest bule green toning I have ever seen. He was under the impression that it would grade out at AU58/MS60 and asked me for $390.00 USD. I said yep, sent it back to him for submission to PCGS and low and behold it came back a MS-63 ! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> WOW!!! I came off my chair:goofer: and offered to split the $$ difference with him as a friendly gesture for such a valuable coin. He declined saying "Na..thats ok..good for you! We will work on some other ones later on" Now thats what I call not being greedy. I did promise to give him first shot at it if I decided to sell it. Just as a MS63 it list for $1300.00...the toning (for those that like toning) will make it even more desireable! It is indeed beautiful and I plan on posting a pic as soon as I get situated to capture a true picture of this really nice coin. There ya have it...</p><p><br /></p><p>RickieB<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
