Hey, I was wondering if someone could help give me an idea of the grade on this coin. I understand this to be a rare coin. Any idea of value and if there is anything special I should do to it? IE Get it certified?  I apologize if the quality isn't the best for grading. Please let me know how to make it better...

Thanks bmxboy. Anyone else agree or disagree?
I'm thinking of using ICCS anyone agree or disagree with that? I can't seem to find them online and when I call it goes to voice mail. No one has called me back. Seems odd for some organization so well known...

Just an update to this, I got it graded by ICCS and they gave it a MS65 RED. Nice one BMX! I wish I could grade coins like that. I don't think I'm even close to guessing grades yet. I think I may sell on ebay to pay for all my coin supplies...I'll be sad to let it go though. I really appreciate the find and don't typically care about the money...decisions decisions

Yeah, I'll get it scanned. I just created my account about a month ago on ebay I think it's Geoffcoin. But honestly if I do choose to sell it I'm sure I'll be asking for too much considering I don't want to really let it go...though I actually don't know what to list it for as from what I understand anything that is BIN on ebay is over priced.

Congrats on the find! I wish you well in you decision to sell or kepp it! I also found one in circulation a few months ago, also in good condition. I haven't had it graded yet, but once it is, I'll post pics. It will be my first graded coin.

Nice one. This was my first graded coin. I think that is part of the reason I don't want to sell it. Anyway, maybe I'll find another or I can get my wife agree to a price too high, then I can keep it...

Well, we decided to put it on ebay. I guess I'll find out how fair my price was...less than 7 days remaining.

"We" did, huh? :) Quote:

CCN trends the 2006 CPS at $300 in MS-65 ($500 for a MS-66). So you're significantly overpriced. But, to help, you should put up the pic of the coin from your first post. You're selling the coin, not the ICCS holder.

Thanks for the feedback! I think I should be able to put up the pics still. As for the price...I'm not going to tell my wife so I can just keep the coin.;) I have no idea what the CCN and CPS means. I feel like such a rook'.

did you ever end up selling this?

No I didn't. I tried though. I think there were two reasons. One was the price was too high that people could go to local dealers and get it for $10-$50 more than what I posted. Combine that with me not having any history on ebay for selling or buying and that being a scary thing for some. I won't post it for less on ebay though, it's the first valuable coin I've found and not interested in parting with it for less.

Has anyone sold an MS65 version of this coin? What is the going rate. I was going to pick one up.
