I think they placed the listing in hopes of finding this coin that was stolen, not to sell it.  |

I know zilch about this coin but who would pay 75 Grand for it when the seller won't accept returns .  |

Debrajc, of course I meant it as far as finding the coin, obviously they could not sell a coin that was stolen. I was just passing on the information and wondering about the value. man, that would break me financially and emotionally. I do not know the circumstances of the theft, but if it occurred during business hours I would NEVER allow some unknown yahoo who just walked into the store even handle a coin of this value, if this is what the real value is. Thief just asks to look at the coin, the employee hands it over and the thief just bolts out the door! But I do not know the facts of the case or if that is what happened, but if it was stolen like that and the employee is liable to the store for any coins they hand over to a potential "customer", he or she would be working for free for years. But then again, I would think most shops are insured but this coin was not insured. But I have heard of jewelry shops being robbed like this... no gun, just a grab a diamond ring and go! I would chase such a robber until I collapsed from exhaustion or until the robber started spewing some hot lead in my direction. I wonder what a jury would decide if you shot and killed such a grab-and-go robber what would happen to you. Some law enforcement agencies allow an officer to shoot a "fleeing felon", altho I would not want to put it to the test as such a policy allows an officer to shoot a bad guy in a "correctly worded" report, so if there is still such policies or laws still in place it can be abused. oh man!

I have one of these. No big deal. NCLT
Over 1/4 million struck, with 20,000 silver proofs.
Value of aluminum bronze standard metal about $8, silver proof $45.
Debrajc is right.

It's probably about a $30 USD coin in that grade. Still terrible for the owner, but as mentioned the listing price is so no one buys it and people will see it to spread the word

LOL had a nice laugh, agree with the above it is not worth 99.6k, probably just someone looking for owner. Worth jack, somewhere like 5-10 retail value, maybe a little more since NCLT.
Wait he say mintmark is missing still not worth in the hundreds, but does rasie the value.

Interesting .
My 47th ed. Rennicks Australian Coin & Banknote Values does not list the no mm variety, but lists all of the other mm's.

Quote:@sel_69l and @basebal21 They're not a common coin, the no mintmark variety (or error) is known only by a handful of examples, see values here: https://bluesheet.com.au/Decimal_Co...4_One_DollarWorth about $1200 in that grade. Definitely glanced over that, thanks for pointing that out |
