Online Appraisal
D. 1873 20 dollar piece
Asked on May 28, 2024
Nice! Shame about the scratches, still couple grand!
follow up: owner sent a link to an open 3 listing asking for 10K.
The link you sent goes to a coin that’s a condition rarity. You don’t have the training to grade it or verify it’s the same variety. Plus, that link goes to an asking price not a closed sale. It’s way overpriced. The consumer price guide for that coin in 63 is $6,250 and it’s likelier to trade at the dealer price if $5,000. In AU it’s about spot, $1,800.
Without seeing it in person I can’t verify it’s authentic or comparable. You can make an appointment to see me or find a dealer to look at it. Or pay to have it certified and learn the system is rigged toward volume dealers and big auction houses. I can’t sit here in my arm chair and in good conscience tell you what you want to hear.
