    NGC Certifies $10 Million Coin: The Walter Perschke Brasher Doubloon
    Posted on 6/14/2012

    A beautifully struck specimen, believed to be the finest example of the rare Brasher Doubloon, has been graded by NGC as MS 63.

    Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) has graded and encapsulated what may be the world's most valuable coin. Prominent numismatist Walter Perschke is the owner of the coin, which is believed to be the finest known example of the rare Brasher Doubloon. Perschke first purchased the Brasher Doubloon in 1979 for $430,000, then a record price for a coin. It is now valued at $10 million.

    :) quality is remembered long after price is forgotten:) , 450K to 10million not bad, yes the guy sat for 30 years but 10 million is a lowball IMHO , I guarantee you the coin goes for 15Million++++++++if it ever comes up for auction ,some tech guy or rich stock guy ,will snap that thing up like he was buying a hamburger, It is a true piece of American history

    With qe4 (next) and qe1 and qe2 from europe. (next). I think dont need to go to 3012.
    In 2052 is very plausible 10 million are less than 500.000 for now.
