The coins that are so damn beautiful but way out of your price range

I saw this one while cruising the local auction site today.

Was going to post a Gothic until I clicked that link.

Here's my favourite:

Okay, maybe not in this condition, but in general:

​How much is it actually worth. I don't collect US coins, or know anything about them.

​NGC lists an MS67 at $20,000. Production was 484,000, which is lowest ever for the US circulation Lincoln Penny.

​It shows that mintage isn't everything. This Fiji circulation penny has a mintage of only 24,000 and it's only worth a few dollars.

​

​Someone contacted me and said they found it inappropriate, I'm happy to change it slightly.

When I started this thread I wasn't just talking about designs but the condition of coins as well. Like this one from a guy I have bought several coins from in the past
