With the rare coin market on fire, I wonder if we will see new highs set for "the most expensive coin" ever this year. The Brasher Dubloon auction earlier this year set a solid second place at $9+ million just below the 1794 Flowing Hair dollar at $10 million. Any candidates you can think of that will fetch $11+ million?
Many dealers, myself included, would say the 1907 $20 J-1775/1905 Pattern Proof Indian Head Double Eagle. Some dealers estimate around a $13 million price tag, others as much as $23 million. I fall a bit towards the middle at $16m.
Not even close , the 1933 Fenton Double Eagle Sale price $ 7,590,020 USD ! Split 50/50 with the US Government , Since our American cousins Love a huge show , the 20 Dollars was a big show of the signing ceremony of US Treasury monetizing the Coin. A good read Alison Frankels book on The Double Eagle . Also you can watch on YouTube the original sale . If the coin sold today in this market 15 to 17 million would not surprise! One thing is for sure Better coins are bringing very good prices these Days in all parts of the market . More and more individuals are looking at investment alternatives .
