Hi all, Had my 1980 30 yuan piefort (soccer) graded at PCGS came back PF68DCAM. There are 2 others at this grade and none finer. Mintage was only 500 in silver. I will be selling eventually but pricing it is difficult, PCGS price guild is 1750, I suspect it may be low and not accurate from doing so comparisons. Just seeing what your thoughts on pricing this out would be. TY in advance.
I also have an encapsulated proof ex Mint, and it would also rate PF68DCAM, which I would expect to be the most commonly found grade in encapsulated form. Due to the circumstances in which I found it, I do not consider it to be a highly valuable coin. I picked it up in it's capsule from a dealer's $10 junk box about 10 years ago. I am reasonably certain that my example is not a piedfort, and thus has a considerably higher mintage.
What is the weight and thickness of the coin pictured?
@sel_69l its 30 grams and I am not sure of the thickness off the top of my head maybe 4 to 5mm. The coin you have is lighter and less thick and were the more common ones issued and are not worth very much.
