I see the coin as being highly collectable, but not at that price. I have purchased coins from the dealer, and he is a fair and honest. He may be doing a little adverting on ebay as these high end coins often end up at the major auction houses. |

I'm surprised PCGS didn't give it a waiver and put it in a "First Strike" slab (for a nominal fee of course!).

So does the mispelled RELEASED as REEEASED add value as an "error coin?"

I see you edited your post Earle. So mine is irrelevant.

I don't know which one it was but one of the known engraved coins was recovered from a dealers scrap silver bucket. I note the esylum link lists the #12 coin as having been stolen from Julian Leidman but the PCGS coinfacts lists it as being in a private collection. It is Leidman who is doing the ebay auction. Was it recovered (I hadn't heard that his stolen coins were recovered.) Also from the Esylum link we get the picture of the #4 coin, but its whereabouts are listed as unknown in the Coinfacts listing. |
