I wrote this post yesterday to answer John Purkey's post in which be
states that he'd rather own a $20 St Gaudens than a ultra high relief
SG that the Mint is now producing. I quoted a price of $1190 incl
shipping and insurance. That price was the GraySheet wholesale bid
when
Gold was at $820 /oz. As I write this, gold is at $880/oz. Therefore,
I will hold this price only until 8Pm EST today, Jan 23. as it turns
out I have one MS-62 SG in a PCGS holder and another in an NGC holder
at the same grade. Both are visually equivalent. John Purkey never
responded so the coins are availble to anyone here.

If any RCC reader would like one at this price, just post here and I
will furnish contact info.
This is quite a good price as wholesale bid is over $1220 now,
notwithstanding Robert Finner's snide but predictable response which
I'm sure will follow this post.

If anyone here us interested, I will furnish a photo.

Of course to Ira any post that does not praise him and his over-priced
coins is snide.
After all, he's a "professional numismatist"!

Your comment was snide, which is fine. It's your choice. You should be a
man and admit it.

That's a good price for one of these, I was at a wholesaler's
Wednesday and raw AUs are going for $1100.

Frank, even if I were offering one of these for $600 I would still get
the predictable detractors. You and I both know a good deal, but it
makes no difference to those have nots who get their pleasures in this
manner.

BTW, for those interested, gold is over $899 oz now.

Ah yes, the dreaded Pee Wee Herman counter-attack. "I know you are but what
am I?" I haven't seen that one since the second grade playground.

If you want to be snide, then be snide. Just admit what you are and stop
pretending to be anything else. You are starting to remind me of a couple
other characters that float around here pretending to be the champion of the
newsgroup when they are anything but.

I like doing business with professional numismatists, such as Ira. It's the
ones who are not professional that I have problems with. The bitterness of
poor quality lingers long after the pleasure of low price is forgotten.

Good old predictable Irastein, always hit 'em with your wallet.
You know you're in trouble when Fwankie sides with you!

I will point out that Liberties in XF-AU are now selling for $1250-1300 now,
this is a hell of a good price for an MS Saint. And Ira is a great seller,
Finnan excepted.

If you still have it, I will take it and have emailed you.

Same here, but all I needed to do was add a RWF filter to the RF one of
before.

Actually he has been posting some good coin related posts lately.
