I could buy a car for the price of that Barber. Cheapest coin this seller has is over $2000! Sort by Price+shipping high to low for extra drooly results...

His coins come up for discussion every now and then.
Great inventory, doesn't make many sales, open to price negotiations.

He probably uses ebay for advertising.

Wonder why it's not in a PCGS holder? It would be more marketable.

When you have a coin of that magnitude, or in my opinion any coin over $2,000, anyone that is bidding on it knows their stuff and is not buying the holder.

Maybe even at the $1,000 price point but there is a lot of "new money" suckers at that level.

No CAC sticker. It's a nice coin regardless but probably topped out at its grade.

Just my opinion, but something about that coin does not look "right". The frosting looks suspicious.
