Current PCGS price guide list the coin at a wallet busting $225.00. Need the price I paid for the VF details.

I sometimes wonder if PCGS knows how to operate an On-Off switch.
Its price is low by a factor of about 20.

$1750

Got to call a winner $2100.00

[lured_in_again]

My guess was based on the VF details holder not being attributed as a 14.20

Pretty sure my brain did not register past your very good story'.....pretty sure I LOOKED up a 14.2 by mistake. Myoppologies.... rookie maneuvering going on over here . You have to give him a prize still.

I bought this on a lark 22 years ago when it was in an NGC-55 holder. It's old and it's gold, so it caught my attention on eBay. And being a VAM nerd, the overdate feature made me want it even more. It not only crossed in the holder on the first try, but it went up to AU58. I have no clue how rare it is, other than it is still the only 1610/09 example PCGS has ever graded. Your guess number is the purchase price plus the crossover cost at PCGS. Good luck.

A fun game indeed, however very sad that we resort to games
here on VW , mostly due to lack of regular activity/interest.
Guess if prices of vams would escalate we might see more action
and interest. Guess im kinda burned out after many yrs LOL
Good luck to all that follow & continue this sport!!

Not exactly sure how to proceed here, but more than enough time has passed so...

All guesses were much too high – which means @collectinsince65 came closest. My purchase + crossover cost was $294, which seemed too cheap to pass up at the time, and what my gut says now was a sweet 'pick.

[collectinsince65]
