Owner Comments:
I spent almost two years chasing one of these through offers to owners on Heritage, since none came to auction. Finally I got one of the two that could accept offers, in MS63, for almost ten times what the guy paid four years ago. Then, within a month, this MS65 coin got listed on Ebay as a real auction, I set up a bidsnipe and won it, just over half what I paid for the lower graded coin a month earlier. That's life. One in MS66 at NGC, 6 including this coin in MS65 at NGC. This used to be the only one in MS65 at PCGS but it has crossed over.
