Interesting piece. Not impressed though with the look of that coin in the pics and the price, forget it. Dreaming.
Rest in Peace

I took another look through the link. It seems like the excitement would come from the rarity, not the beauty. NGCs write-up talks about Liberty's head. It is true that it is usually void of too much detail. But still, I think this is one of those pieces you probably have to see in hand.

To the Forum.

If I would have that amount of money to spend , I would go for:
1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB sells for $11.4 m

to CCF Ballyhoo. If it is that rare, you would think someone would have NGC conserve it
Is that your coin Ballyhoo?

Not a very pretty coin. Needs some nice eye appeal to spend 10m

Not only that, it also sold in 2014 for $129,250 also in a different holder.
So the 1st buyer lost $82,250 (assuming it didn't privately trade in between), and now someone wants to make $9,953,000 flipping it.
Here are the Heritage links for anyone who is interested.
