Mitch, I agree that at the time $10K was the correct number for the coin, and now is the time to fix the PG for the Silver Roosies. I have 3 where the PCGS price guide shows a value of $10K each. My price guide is around half that for each. a couple months ago PC lowered the PG on one of my pop 1/0 dimes from $12K to $10K. No sale has ever recorded for this coin, date or grade. I took this as a sign that PC will lower PG values without a recorded sale and hope they continue to do that. Even though my set would lose tremendous value based on the PG I believe in the long run this would be better for the hobby and potential future Roosevelt Collectors.

Numisport,

I don't think the coin is a $20 coin. This is how I approached it. I think the coin has the nicest Obverse via technical grade I have seen. The obverse and reverse is very attractive. I graded the coin overall MS67+FB. The reverse on it's own is MS66FB. Still.... As an MS67+FB the value to me would only be around $1200. This is a registry coin and I'm a registry player. I understand that not everyone understands this registry thing. Now look at it this way. I value the coin out of the plastic at $500, This is what it would be worth to me. I value the plastic at $2500. When you're a registry player plastic sometimes has value. In this case as a pop 1/0 the plastic has value to me. That's how I arrived at my $3000 value or what I would be willing to pay for the coin. The coin (and plastic) is only worth what someone else is willing to pay. Apparently someone else was willing to pay more and valued it much higher than I. I just hope (as I've seen this happen before) that a dealer didn't buy it because of the PCGS $10K price guide number hoping to quickly flip it for 40% below PG and a good profit to an unsuspecting collector using the PCGS PG as a reference.

The PCGS Price guide is way way off. Not only do I hope they adjust accordingly for the 64D. All the pop 1/0 MS68FB's need to be adjusted to the down side. I was a bidder on the coin at $2600 plus juice. I was actually a bit surprised that the coin hammered as high as it did. I maintain my own price guide and I have the date in MS68FB valued at $3800. I valued this coin at $3000.

Congrats to the new owner

Yes, the 50P above is PCGS graded MS68FB and is currently listed in the next Heritage auction.

This coin was recently graded at PCGS. I once owned this coin several years back. At that time it was graded NGC MS67FT. The coin has changed hands several times since then. It now resides in a PCGS holder. Care to guess the grade. Look the coin over real good. I have no connection to the coin nor do I know who currently owns it.
