in my own non expertise of grading this type of coin, I would have said ,
Net VG-8 OR F-12 Details. Reverse is very nice.

The coin is clearly not F12, but I do agree with HA's assessment of EAC 8, or in my opinion just a tad lower (VG7).
Copper Quotes by Robinson values S-1 in VG8 Average condition at 25K.so yes, it is a lot of money, but that seems to be the approximate coins F.M.V. The auction pries realized for the coin reflect that.

Rev is VG10 details,The obverse is a G7 details. It sold for $20,000 at stacks. Ridiculous price he wants $28,000 for this low grader with ugly scratches and verdigris porous and barly a G7 details obverse. Of course I respect a S1 chain--but why did the grading company not see the problems--when its clear as daylight its Details only grade-----its my LOUD question !?

RCW sells quite a bit of coins on ebay, it's not just for advertising. Like a TON of other ebay sellers, they overprice and use the best offer option. It's just the ebay version of a typical face to face negotiation. "How much you want for that?" "Uh, $XXXXX.XX." "I'll give you $XXXXX.XX" Etc....... Bashing sellers like this for "overpricing" is kind of silly since they know exactly what they're doing, as do experienced ebay buyers. Sold on ebay by RCW |

F12?! My word. How about G6 obverse, VG10 reverse, details, net G7-G8. This is the power of expensive coins from big auction houses and/or big sellers -- the ability to get TPG bumps. Lack of pedigree before Heritage is somewhat surprising for this sort of coin. Not withstanding the S-1 premium I must respectfully disagree with CQR and say this is closer to a $20k coin than a $28.9k coin; Furthermore, who uses best offer on a $28.9k coin anyway? "Uh, can you sell it to me for $28,000?" If you can afford that coin, you can afford to hold out for a nicer example with a better pedigree.

Wow. That's just crazy to me. I wonder what their sale conversion % is off best offers, and what kind of markup they are running.

VG8 obverse F-12 reserve. PCGS rarely makes these details coins even when truly they are, it has to be pretty bad.

Remember, you can always sell a coin for a certain price, but it doesn't mean it's going to sell!
