Have a question or looking to schedule an appointment?
What is the grade and do you have proof of authentication? 01/18/2026 22:50:51 PM
The grade is estimated to be About Uncirculated (AU). We do not have any paperwork on the coin. The coin was tested with the Sigma to verify that it's gold. 01/19/2026 07:38:35 AM
Is the coin worn or dirty on the on the "M" in America? that area of the coin looks different 01/29/2026 17:32:15 PM
Unknown, we will try to get a better answer. 01/30/2026 07:19:30 AM
Hello, I have a couple of questions regarding this listing: 1. I participated in the auction for this coin the last time it was posted. My bid was $50 above the reserve price, and another bidder then increased the bid by an additional $100 and won the auction. I later noticed that the item has been relisted. Could you please clarify how it came to be posted again? 2. Could you please let me know what the reserve price is for this current listing? Thank you. 02/06/2026 18:26:25 PM
The winner did not want to wire the payment because the coin doesn't have a certificate guaranteeing the AU50 grade. We offered the 2nd highest bidder the chance to accept it, however they declined. So, there must have been one other bidder after your final bid. Anyway, we added a little more to the description about the estimated grade and relisted the coin. We are not coin experts. We did look up the value of the coin, and even at the lowest grade of F12, it's worth $7000. 02/06/2026 19:56:58 PM
