Rare Gold Coin Sells for $414,000

The city of Baltimore was the site of an amazing sale of gold last month. There a very rare gold coin was purchased for the outstanding sum of $414,000! Can you imagine someone spending all of that money for a single gold coin? After all, this gold coin did not have a face value anywhere near the amount for which it sold. The 1870 Liberty Head gold coin was valued originally at $20. One of the reasons that is sold for so much is that it was in such excellent conditions. Although it is rare, there are other examples of this same kind of coin, but these examples are not in such great shape. Apparently the surface of this gold coin has held up remarkably well.

There were only a few thousand examples of this 19th century gold coin produced in the first place, so you can understand the excitement about it, especially when one has survived in such good condition.  When gold coins are first made, no one is thinking of them as collectibles, unless they are made especially for that purpose. So as the years go by, they may be handled quite roughly and go through a lot of wear and tear. A gold coin that goes through circulation before it earns the status of being collectible will pass through many hands and various cash registers. On the other hand, gold coins that are marked as collectibles from the start are carefully preserved, but even then accidents can occur, a child can get their hands on them, or someone may not realize their value and toss them into a coin jar.

We know that you would surely love to sell a gold coin for over $400,000 and if you have something so rare as an 1870 Liberty Head gold coin, you should definitely do this. But if you have gold coins that are not quite so rare that you would like to sell, try contacting a gold buyer. There is no need to be concerned about their condition or how much of the surface is visible because a gold buyer is not looking to display gold. A gold buyer is concerned with how much pure gold your gold items contain. This is why you can sell gold that is not in the best condition to a gold buyer and get cash for gold.
