Description: $7,200 auction sale in 2022 for mere MS61 (click the fifth image). $5,850 for mere AU58 at huge PNG-member dealer (click the sixth image). π΅ CMQ = David Hall's version of a CAC sticker, which thus denotes superior eye appeal and technical quality. Hall is PCGS's founder and the greatest grading expert and coin dealer of all time. Both he and Greg Roberts, another superstar numismatist, must agree on any coin's CMQ approval. Billion-dollar companies make a buy/sell market in CMQ coins. CMQ places far more emphasis on eye appeal than CAC does. Picky CMQ approves merely a small minority of coins submitted. β 90% BUYBACK GUARANTEE: Within three years from payment, we will repurchase this high-end rarity for at least 90% of the purchase price, less Ebay/PayPal fees, actual postage, sales tax if any. Coin and holder must be undamaged. Original buyer only. CMQ sticker must still be affixed. β GUARANTEED LOWEST PRICE: We will beat any other Ebayer's price by 25% of the difference. Compared coins must be identically certified, aesthetically similar, and in stock. Valid at time of purchase only. Also applies to most of our other certified items. π΄ FUN FACTS π΄ 1909-O has 8X the mintage and 10X the population yet PCGS Price Guide is $75,000 in this grade! Mintage 4,240 -- lowest of all $5's from 1878 to today. Easily MS66 by third-tier slab and online/mail-order retail standards, even without the usual doctoring (yes, MS66). Many tallied in the population reports are resubmissions or crossovers of the same coins. Even so, population just 116 in ALL grades combined! Often mistaken for a common date, which leads to low auction prices and thus sheet prices. $7,200 APR for mere MS61 in 4/22 (click the third image). This beautiful, choice MS62 seems a bargain by comparison. Some sneaky dealers would polish the naturally Prooflike surfaces and sell as a proof! Dealers and PCGS heavily market BILLION-mintage modern coins, which creates artificial demand, grossly inflated prices, and GIGANTIC profits. But they ignore this 4,240-mintage key because it is far too rare to promote and from which to profit, so demand and thus prices stay absurdly low. Seriously, $10,500 PCGS Price Guide for a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny in two grades below MS70? And $10,000 for a "rare" 4.5 BILLION-mintage 1975-D cent in the same imperfect grade? We would not pay $5 for either. But we ask just $5,500 for this 4,240-mintage key? Most modern coins can be bought at or near face value, melt value, or Mint-issue price; placed in a $4 plastic slab (PCGS bulk rate); and sold for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. But try doing that with with this 4,240-mintage key. We only deal in truly rare coins, not fabricated illusions designed to make coin dealers rich. Ask your modern coin dealer if he will buy back for 90% less seller's fees, as we will for this rare coin. Or even 10%.
