Would You Pay This Much For A 2000 ASE?

If I was going to pay that much for a coin itd be something like that, its a 1 of a kind.

Overall though no I wouldnt want to put that much into a single coin unless I had buffet money

Since there was 14 assorted bidders, the need or desire to have a one of a kind item is very high in some people. I would think that it is such a common coin over 9 million minted that there are more of that grade out there. If one or more people want to pay the fees to get them graded. I think the the perceived value/worth would, drop considerably. With the more of coins being graded at that level the deeper the price fall.

I know in other collectables, when one of a kind item, becomes a dozen or so items. the price falls through the basement.

But being new to collecting coins, some of the things are strange, along with some different preferences in what they collect. But to each his own!

A couple other won't necessairly lower the value. Keep in mind how many people collect ASEs. Its highly unlikely the population would truely explode but getting a handful more would be possible. However even if there were 5 or 6 they would rarely if ever hit the market. A pcgs 95 w pf 70 just sold for over 80k and it has a population of 5.

There's enough people chasing top grade ASE sets that I don't like a couple more would hurt it much if at all. Itd still be one of the hardest to get 70s. Plus think how many there really could be. Most were just used as bullion, a 70 was rare at the time and now almost 13 years have passed, a lot of the nicest have already been graded, and they're real hard on those extreme raritiies. It would have to be without a doubt no brainer 70 the slightest doubt and they're giving it a 69.
