TRADE SECRET: Easily AU58 by third-tier slab and raw standards even without the usual doctoring. Stick with NGC or PCGS, and ignore excuses from third-tier dealers (ask them if they will buy back for 90% less seller's fees, as we will for this conservatively graded rarity. Or even 10%). Choice BU by vintage mail-order standards! NEVER BUY RAW COINS! We know of many dealers who have become fabulously wealthy by grossly over grading choice rarities like this. Stick with NGC and PCGS, and ignore excuses from third-tier coin sellers (ask them if they will buy back for 90% less selling fees, as we will for this conservatively described beauty. Or even 10%). We will net a whopping 12% profit after deducting Ebay's regular fee, Ebay's promotion fee, and insured postage. We sell interesting, undervalued rarities like this to pass along the collecting fun, not to get rich. Many dealers heavily market BILLION-mintage modern coins, which creates artificial demand, grossly inflated prices, and GIGANTIC profits. But they ignore this 30,000-mintage key because it is far too rare to promote and from which to profit, so demand and thus prices stay absurdly low. Seriously, $10,500 PCGS Price Guide for a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny in two grades below MS70? And $10,000 for a "rare" 4.5 BILLION-mintage 1975-D cent in the same imperfect grade? We would not pay $5 for either. But PCGS Price Guide is just $500 for this 30,000-mintage key date? Most modern coins can be bought at or near face value, melt value, or Mint-issue price; placed in a $4 plastic slab (PCGS bulk rate); and sold for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. But try doing that with with this 30,000-mintage key date. We deal only in truly rare coins, not fabricated illusions designed to make coin dealers rich. Ask your modern coin dealer if he will buy back for 90% less seller's fees, as we will for this rare coin. Or even 10%.
