I picked this up from Heritage last week . Their picture did not do the coin justice. My original intention was to sell this on EBAY , having the coin in hand I may decide to just keep it . Well maybe I will just put it up with a lofty BIN price. :-}
It's magically delicious! (At least the reverse is) Very dark on the obverse, kinda splotchy, and crusty, not a big fan of toning like that. Now I do like the reverse, it is a darker shaded toning, but it is stunning. I like it for the most part Musicman ;) Congrats
I agree the reverse is killer , the observe is still very nice but not ideal . In hand it is not dark but the toning is uneven. I am sure I can get a good price for this coin if I decide to sell it .
I was actually looking at that same coin Music. You picked up a very nice coin at a great price. I love the reverse (grape soda-like??) AND ,I'm a fan of crustiness so the obverse doesn't bother me at all.. Do Connecticut residents have to pay tax on Heritage? I never had to pay taxes with Heritage until a few months ago & since then, I haven't bid very often
I'm not quite sure when it started, but the last quarter eagle I bought from them included NYS sales tax. It's hard to compete when you have to include the BP AND sales tax now
met, I know in PA there's no tax up to a certain dollar amount on coins. I dont know what it is but it must be too rich for my blood. I was at an auction a few months ago and the auctioneer mentioned there would be tax applied to the Canadian coins. I thought that was odd.
