I sure do! Now, the real problem is: How do I get 98,050 people to give me $1?

Price isn't actually that crazy. Am sure they'd take 90K.

Free shipping. For that price, he better be hand carrying it to you wherever you lived in the world!

Assuming that this is a reasonable price (perhaps so given the grade), and someone would be prepared to pay $100,000. Would that person be prepared to send a draft sight unseen to this person (would they even know them) and wait for a $100,000 parcel to arrive in the mail or by courier?

There must be a safe protocol for paying and taking delivery of a valuable item like this, and if so what is it? Just curious.

Max ebay fees are only $250. Otherwise, I would be surprised as well!

With this coin I would keep it just the way it is .
But justcarl will probably break it out to put into his many Mercury albums .

I am starting to call these "clickbait" coins because they exist only to get people to click on the listing and therefore serve as a sort of advertisement for the seller's store or listings. Notwithstanding, this one does a great job at just that. It's near the "top pop", CAC beaned, and toned, a winning combination, but I am not sure it's worth another $20 more than the similarly-gorgeous PCGS MS66FB currently listed for "only" $78k.

I think Paypal has the 24 months no interest promotion.

So about $4,086 per month.

Looking at other 16-Ds on ebay, I found a few in 66FB that are in the high 70s. The coin originally posted is really nice, but I'm not sure if that plus at the end of the grade justifies spending $20k more than what I would have to spend to get a 66FB

Seller sends coin first, then I send payment.
