Every time they do this, threads about it pop up at coin forums all over the Internet, and get page views from some of the most sharply-focused demographic they can ask for. Dumb like fox, if you ask me. |

The Half Disme is only an MS65...forget it. Then he has a PCGS MS65+ 1918/7-D Buff...no eye-appeal. Also, that MS67 1907 $10 looks cleaned...  swcoin.ecrater.com

If I was going to spend money on it I would want a lot of the facts about it confirmed. I don't know the dealer, may just be a publicity stunt.
I aint't got that sort of money to spend on coins anyway.

For those who are unaware, the seller here is Rare Coin Wholesalers, Steve Contursi's company. In a world of high-end coinsellers, they are probably the highest-end of all. They've handled two of the three largest-ever US single coin transactions. He's handled the "EB" Brasher Dubloon, the King of Siam Proof Set, and the 1794 Silver Dollar considered the very first Dollar ever minted in America. Go check out the inventory on their website. |

Wow! I just went to their website and looked at various coins from over 150-240 years ago. Amazing coins. Way too much for my budget but most I looked at I'd expect to see in a museum.

There is something not right about the color and lack of the usual planchet problems associated with the early large cents that this coin exhibits that really throws up red flags for me. I wouldn't buy this coin at any price regardless that it is in a slab. It looks to perfect. Ed ANA LM-3175 |
