Re: 1898-S 20 dollar Double gold Eagle
 

I didn't say false, I said misleading. I think it's interesting that you list the gold content above, but the ebay description does not. That's the misleading part, the total amount of gold that is for sale.

I also think it's misleading to link to the PCGS price when the coin is not graded by PCGS (PCGS price guide specifically notes that "The prices listed in this price guide are for PCGS graded coins only. Coins graded by other grading services, or not certified by any grading service, may sell for different, often lower, prices.") Even one grade lower on the PCGS guide to MS-65 is $8500. Also the PGCS population report lists that they have only graded 1 MS-66 for this year/mint

No big deal, just pointing out what I think is misleading, others may have a different opinion and are free to bid away.
