Wowza. I knew it was way out of my league, but altogether in another universe.

Bidding is up to $420,000 with buyer's premium with 3 days left until the live auction. Wonder if it will pierce the half million mark.

THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Your detail is better and the patina in more even, however I prefer the color of the other two better. Something tells me your coin was monkeyed with long ago. I'm nitpicking of course. Yours is an outstanding coin and deserving of the grade.

Thanks again for all of your comments. This sold tonight for $528,000. Almost exactly twice what it sold for in 2006. Not a great rate of return for that buyer which I calculate at 4.073% APR if he realized the entire final amount (not likely) over 17 years.

Not a bad return if you factor in the enjoyment level over 17 years, assuming the buyer/seller wasn't just an investor.

Between the NGC and PCGS CAC example, it is a comparison of originality other than detail. The NGC looks better than a 45 but lacks all originality, likely net graded. The PCGS CAC example is solid and merits the grade.
