Been a while since I've posted. Just wanted to get some opinions on this coin. I saw it on ebay tonight and fell in love with it. I got the winning bid for $626 shipped. Doesn't seen like a bad deal for what is. But, I know nothing about world coins. These pics do not show off the iridescent colors that the coin showcases. The brown with the heavy cameo is a thing of beauty. Just wondering if I did good or got ripped off.

I'm not familiar with Liberian coins, but that one sure is beautiful!! I always love to see the prizes that my fellow World collectors come across. Congrats on a very cool coin and thanks for sharing it with us!

I know nothing about world coins but I do know a beautiful coin when I see one and that is a fantastic example.......Mike

Great coin for sure, but the RO [rip-off] factor is up to you. If you are investor, then you needed to check it out before you bought it. If you are a collector and intend to keep it, and be proud of ownership and it nestles in your mind as well as in your collection, then the price and value pale to insignificance. If you need to have value and collection kudos, may as well find out now. try to sell it with a reserve twice as high as you want for the coin, so you don't sell it, and the price will settle at its fairly true value. Value is what you can get for something, not what you pay for it. Extrinsic and intrinsic values must be looked at. Hope that helps.
