This coin may have exited from the back door of the Philadelphia Mint? I can't help but wonder if the notorious Mr. Brown from Buffalo may have had a hand in making this one? As I recall, he was the purveyor of the 1913 Liberty nickels.

I can only say amazing.
How many of those are out there in the wide world do you think?
I honestly dont think its worth six hundred grand though...maybe more like $50,000.
But whatever anyone will pay for it!

Yet another thought ... I can't help but ponder how the lawful possession of this coin might compare with that of the 1933 $20 gold pieces? A friend of mine, long deceased, once had an 1865 CN Three Cent Piece struck in gold, but it wasn't slabbed. Wonder where that one is now?

I wonder who has 600 Grand laying around. Anyways. I'd lose it... I lost a wallet in my own room with 190 bucks in it. I would litterally lose my glasses if I didn't where them to sleep... but I have had to pull out the mattress before. haha

how could it be copper-nickel and struck in gold?

I would have never known such a remarkable coin existed! Man, what a buttload of money it costs...

This is one of my dream coins, but obviously, I will never own one. There are a few known, but I've never seen one come up for sale.
