I wish I had that much money to spend on one coin. It is a beautiful coin for sure.

Quote: I'll see your lovely '77 and raise you an eagle: Steer clear MySilverYears, that seller has a reputation and it ain't good. Why would that coin be raw? Can confidently claim that the photos are manipulated to hide what needs to be hid.

PCGS has the value for an MS-65+ RD example at $51,500. The Eagle Eye PhotoSeal and CAC stickers might help this awesome coin exceed even that amount. Regarding that 1856 Flying Eagle on Hibid: lack of certification is a red flag. When a key date like this is offered raw there is usually a reason. Some kind of "altered surface" problem wouldn't surprise me.

Thanks for the heads up, guys. Not that I would have been a bidder on that 1856. I have pretty much stopped buying coins I cannot see in-hand. There is far too much monkey business affecting collectibles hobbies nowadays. Very discouraging, especially for those with limited knowledge or a tendency to be overly trusting. Unfortunately this trend shows no signs of slowing down.
