Unique Gold Brockage Sells For Record Price of $75,000
This is the only known full brockage on any U.S. Gold Coin of any denomination. It is a first strike obverse brockage of the reverse. It is in choice mint state condition with proof-like surfaces.
This unbelievable gold major mint error was in Fred Weinberg’s personal mint error collection for over twenty years. After months of negotiations I was able to convince Fred to part with one of his all time favorites. He could not refuse my offer and reluctantly sold me the coin.
It was instantly placed in one of the largest mint error collections currently being assembled. The owner wishes to be anonymous, but stated that it may be displayed in the near future. It sold for $75,000 and set a record price.
