Probably considering a small date in 60 is worth close to that and this is in a 66 slab.

I remember this guy. "It is vastly underrated in the tiny brainwashed subculture of aging hardcore coin dealers and collectors, who in our opinion have no clue about its true value and significance."

At least he spelled "its" correctly.

The PCGS number lookup page shows a PCGS value of $9,500 for this coin - pretty far away from the Million he wants.

If he has other items listed it may be designed to get other people to look at his listings, i.e. click bait.

I like the coin, of course, but the price is a shot in the wind. Made us look...

this is what freedom smells like
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

That seller is almost walking distance from me. I'd like to walk in and him.

An NGC MS66BN just sold on ebay for ~$2K, so methinks the seller on this one is a wee bit off.

I love me some 1857 large cents (I have about 10 of them), but that ask is, shall we say, "optimistic".
