PCGS Population Question
 

Hello,

Could someone with access to the PCGS reports copy and paste the reports for the 2008 1/10 Ounce Gold Eagle ($5). I'm interested to know how many FS MS70's there are.

Thanks!

I don't have access to the PCGS reports, but I did find this on another forum that I visit sometimes.

It looks like 346 were graded MS70, although that report doesn't list how many were first strikes.

NGC $5 2008 W

EARLY RELEASE

MS70 = 964
MS69 = 150


REGULAR RELEASE

MS70 = 550
MS69 = 46

Can you see that the First Releases are actually HIGHER and drawing too much attention? I don't know. But the NUMERICAL MS70 regulars are half as rare (read twice as rare):yes: as the first releases, right?

Re: PCGS Population Question
 

That's weird (especially the difference between MS70's and MS69's). Is there any difference for the Non-W coins? What do you think the approximate price for a 2008 (non-W) $5 Gold Eagle MS70 First Strike would be?

Thanks!

I checked and it was
542 2008 1/10 Oz MS70 First strikes and
66 2008-W 1/10 Oz MS70 First Strikes

This is a 1/4 Oz that just sold recently. But im sure you could find a 1/10 oz that has sold recently as well

Thanks! I thought your name looked familiar, noticed you had some stuff for sale on eBay.
