Damn, that's one expensive coin ! 😄
Since I started collecting silver and shit google suggests me all kinds of silver/gold numismatic news stories.. Usually I don't even click them, cause it's the same boring shit again and again, but sometimes something pops up that piques my interest..
And this is one of them!
Take a look at this little beauty that got auctioned a few days ago
Can you guess how much it went for?
630 thousand fucking dollars 😄
A vintage Chinese coin certified by Numismatic Guaranty Company® (NGC®) realized an impressive $630,000 in a recent Heritage Auctions sale. source
God damn... I really wonder how rich some people are. Most people wouldn't be able to afford it even after selling their organs. And yet, somewhere there is a rick dick throwing 630 k to buy it...and probably stash it somewhere never to be seen by the light of sun again 😄😂
As for the coin itself, it is a Long-Whiskered Dragon Silver Dollar, one of the most sought after vintage Chinese coins.
This particular one was struck at the end of the Qing Dynasty in 1911 and has a pattern by Luigi Giorgi (whoever the fuck that is) which makes it one of the most sought of late Imperial silver Dollars. And of course it's super rare.
After doing a bit of digging on these coins, it looks like they all are pretty rare, at least in this condition.. They often go in auctions from 500k to over a million fucking dollars. A piece.
Here's one that went for over 2 mil
Or this one (sorry no pic) that closed at almost 3 million! That can get you a mansion, with lifetime maintance slaves. But instead someone bought a coin, geez 😄😂

Yeah... I won't be stacking any of those beauties any time soon, lmao. Perhaps @dbooster feels generous enough to gift me? That would be nice 😂

$630K Ummm that's a lot of hamburgers! !WINE

It’s a great looking coin. I’ll guess that it went for 25K. But I’m no expert on coins from China.
630k
When you have that much cash you don't care how much stuff costs apparently!

Yes these Qing Dragons are very pricey I have seen a few cheaper ones in fair to fine condition some with Chop marks. Prices still in the nosebleed range. This would be up there as a Christmas Wish list coin for 2025.
Maybe when 1 doge = 100 $ you will get one 😂
Even if they hit $100/dogecoin by Christmas 2024 I think my HK Connection could dig up a coin or two. I've already got a few special coins to watch out for.
I'm already waiting the arrival of a Christmas Wish list coin from him, a coin I thought I could never get but it's held ransom by the CBSA.
I want that for my next secret Santa gift 🤣 !BBH

Wow that is really expensive but I still don't know if I trust Heritage Auctions after Karl Jobst exposed their market manipulation in the retro video game market.
Now that's a lot of dough for a coin that could simply slip from your pockets and end up in a drainage pipe.
630k... How much is a kidney again?
The coin looks good but I love that Hive cup
I think I should do something like that
That is actually quite so expensive but precious and premium
That is really quite so expensive
