    Description

    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.
    Many tallied in the population reports (including CAC's) are resubmissions or crossovers of the same coins. Even so, population just 257 in ALL grades combined counting CAM and DCAM.
    "Commercial" PR68, especially after the usual doctoring. Unless your dealer is legendary expert Warren Mills of RCONH (no affiliation whatsoever), avoid raw coins altogether. Stick with PCGS or NGC (even less desirable ANACS and ICG are preferred but pay accordingly).
    Neither conserved nor doctored, unlike most Seated proofs in "problem free" PCGS slabs.
    Could upgrade after conservation but we prefer originality.
    Very few marks for PR64. Razor sharp strike. 100% non-doctored. Thick "skin".
    Easily PR68 in the giant scam that is the "commercial" raw coin and third-rate slab business, after the usual doctoring.
    PCGS heavily markets BILLION-mintage modern coins, which creates artificial demand, grossly inflated prices, and GIGANTIC profits. But PCGS ignores this 1,000-mintage half dime because it is far too rare to promote and from which to profit, so demand and thus prices stay absurdly low.
    Seriously, ,500 PCGS Price Guide for a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny in two grades below MS70? We would not pay for it. But CU is only 0 for this 1,000-mintage PR64?
    Most modern coins can be bought at or near face value, melt value, or Mint-issue price; placed in a plastic slab (PCGS bulk rate); and listed for hundreds or thousands of dollars each. But try doing that with with this 1,150-mintage key proof. We only deal in real coins, not fabricated illusions designed to make coin dealers rich.
