1922 weak d ms62 rd

[JOBESSI]

What's retail on this coin? None of the price guides have a listing for it. Bought it at the show from a consumer (not a dealer) for $200. Good or bad buy?

[wheat'swheats]

very good, have seen them go for $1000 + a ms 64 reciently sold for around $5000

Have you got a picture yet?

 

I would say retail is around $250-$300. Depending on the look in hand of course.

 

Sorry I did not see it was a weak D.

 

Man you really poured it to that guy!

If that's correct, instead of "very good", I'd say very bad - for the seller.

[JOBESSI]

Well, I was honestly stumped. I tried looking at the price guides & grey sheet, and all I could find was either the "D" or "no d". Nothing about the weak D. I told him I was taking a risk cuz I didn't know. He said $200 was more than the last dealer offered. It's in an old NGC slab. Ill upload some pics when I get home after the show

Did you try the Heritage Auction Archives?

[JOBESSI]

No.

I was taking some time looking for a price. I was nervous I was gonna lose the coin.

[e1cnr]

how solid is the RED?

and is it an attractive 62?

 

PCGS has them at $1200 in their price guide

so $800 retail is probably close

[JOBESSI]

I know I am going to get ragged on about these pics, but I took them with my phone, and my table neighbor at the show was gracious enough to lend me his hot spot. There is a crack in the holder, which I think might have let some air in...which has me concerned about the color. So, I am going to send it in for a regrade for a better holder and secure the color designation.

 

What do you guys think? Will it stay Red?

 

 

Do to the direction of my lamp light, that "D" really stands out in the pic. In Hand, you really have to concentrate to spot that sucker. Blends right in with the coin. All those hairline are from the beat up holder.

[e1cnr]

Don't crack that out yet - it is a strong reverse, so NGC may have made a mistake

 

 

Do a search and find the different reverse dies eligible for weak D

If it is misattributed it should be cracked out. Especially if he is going to be dealing.

 

I am not saying it is as I have no idea. I am sure someone here is an expert.

Come to think of it if it is you would have to wonder if the seller knew so he let it go for 2....

[JOBESSI]

That would be just my luck. I'm shipping it out to NGC first thing in the morning.

If it is misattributed would this be covered under any protection I wonder?

 

Good luck. I have a feeling it will all work out.

The price you quoted was for the 1922 No D, Weak reverse; isn't this different from the 1922 Weak D?

[e1cnr]

Nope the 1922 No D weak reverse is listed at $3400 in RB at PCGS price guide

Thanks for the clarification; I apologize for the confusion.

[e1cnr]

JOBESSI, can you plug in the NGC certification number and see what they say for value?

This coin is NOT a NO D. I also feel it's been recolored and shouldn't be anywhere near the numbers listed. I'd probably pay AU money for it.

[Nutmeg Coin]

A BN in MS62 recently sold for well over a thousand and a RD sold for $2760 in 09 (both Stacks).

 

Who graded the coin?

[copper toning]

How about an update? What did the tpg say?

That price was for the "No D" Weak Reverse, not the "Weak D" coin. This coin is a "Weak D" and is worth less than the auction record listed above.

[Kurtdog]

FWIW I've never seen a Weak-D that strong.

[James_OldeTowne]

The color looks highly suspicious to me. $200 might not be out of the realm of sanity, but I would not put that coin in my collection if it really looks like the images.
