What Is Interesting About This WTC Coin

So I was looking over the current auctions of WTC coins on Ebay I guess I can now call it a hobby of mine as I do it often. Well I see this 1999 WTC $50 gold eagle at a crazy price of $6,000 and I am thinking what is this. Well this guy does not know what he has, and he thinks his $1,600 coin is worth $6,000. As he tells people in the description that its a very rare coin in the WTC coin collection. Anybody that follow Ebay auctions for these coins will know its probably one of the most auction off coins in the $50 WTC coins. I would think that 150 - 500 coins are out there in the grade MS69.

Any way I have a quick laugh about his description and I have a look at his pictures.

Great pictures by the way, if you need to click on the picture to see it in full size you will see the finger print left on the coin in the top right of the coin. Now I can't say that its on the coin, or if its on the holder. But if its on the coin it self it would be what I would highlight if I was selling this coin on Ebay. If he has a finger print of a worker that helped get the coins out of the WTC I would say that some collectors (me included) would think that is pretty cool to have in my collection.

Anyway as always here is his auction

1991 WTC $50 Gold Eagle

Its been really slow lately with the WTC coins and what has been up for sale on ebay. I did add a Austrian Gold Philharmonic 200 Sch to my collection only because I know I cannot get the the 1 oz Austrian Gold Philharmonic I guess I have to take the 1/10 of an once. Anyway anybody sitting on the 1 oz coin send me an email and lets talk.

I am also looking at the 1991 WTC $50 Gold Eagle that are up on ebay right now on Auction No Reserve that does not happen often and I would like to see if the price on this coin is good enough to buy it.

My Christmas Gift from My Wife I hope

This is the ultimate set of WTC coins, as they have a few things going for them. They are all from the WTC, all from 2001, all are MS 69 and all have the barcode on them that will give population numbers with PCGS. This is the real deal here, its expensive but would love to own it.

As you can see there is a Best Offer attach in this auction and maybe the seller will let it go for 10k or something like that, but very nice set.

Putting together the 1 of 190 WTC set

So as always I look around Ebay to see what is available of the WTC coins and today, I can see something that might interest lots of people. The 1 of 190 set, the first set of 2001 coins put together by PCGS can be pieced together from different auction this week.

I have put below all the different auctions that you need to visit to put this set together but that is what us collectors do we collect and enjoy it.

So lets start with the big dog, the WTC $100 platinum coin.

After that there are a few ways to go to get the rest of the coins that are missing in the set. You can buy the rest of the coins from one seller, see it here.

Another way if you don't feel like spending that kind of money right now is piece it together 1 by 1 and there are some options for during that also this week.

Here you can get the WTC 2001 $50 1 of 190

This week you can also go with the $1 Silver 1 of 190 WTC coin that is up for sale.

Its not often its seen the 1 of 190 $100 platinum coin but right now there is 1 up for auction on ebay, its the last coin for many to complete the 1 of 190 set of WTC coins. The good thing about this coin is that its up for auction not buy it now, so it will be sold to the high bidder.

WTC 1998 1 oz philharmonic

Just in time for the 9th Anniversary of the 911 devastating attack on the World Trade Center in New York, comes the coin up for sale, that has been eluded us all for so long. The 1 oz 1998 1 oz Philharmonic 1 of 140, I wish it was not out of my price range but it is. I would love to have that coin for my collection as it is truly the center piece of any WTC collection, but its just to much money for me. I would trade this website for that coin that is how much I want it. But I think I will have to wait for a better time to go after a jewel like this.

WTC 1998 1 oz Philharmonic

WTC 1998 1 oz philharmonic  Most Elusive WTC Coin

There are so many stories about this coin,  and how many of the 140 coins are still in the country. Its hard to know what story is true, but I have hear the following and I am taking no blame if the story is not true but it was told to me by a reliable source. There are 2 of these coins still in USA, the rest has been bough by the Austrian government and melted down as they did not like their coins to be associated with the 911 recovery coins. One would ask if this was the truth why would the small coin the 200 Sch. not be in the same boat, and we know those coins are around. I don't know the answer to that question but I do know that this is the first time in 4 years I have ever seen a wtc 1998 1 oz philharmonic 1 of 140 for sale on ebay.

You can check out the auction here.

So what will the coin go for ? I am not sure but I have already bid the coin to a level where I could not be in it anymore. Maybe 6k maybe 10k I am not sure but we will find out in 7 days.

1oz Gold Bar WTC Great Deal | 1 oz gold bar

Here is a great deal on a 1oz gold bar from the World Trade Center 1 of 426, there are only 426 of these and gold is at $960 and the bar is priced at $1,240 with the buy it now. That is a great price in my opinion.

E-Bay Buyers Be Aware !!

Wow just had a real jerk who bought 2 WTC 2001 MS69 coins from me 

Ebay ID:    51dwightdwight

Please be very careful if you want to buy or sell  WTC coins or any other coins to/from this Jerk.  If he bids on any of your auctions please be careful when sending him your coins.  Use this link to block bidders to your auctions E-bay link block bidder

So here is the story. 51dwightdwight writes me an asked if the two coins have any spots on them. I tell him just the normal dust that are found on these coins because that is all that I see. So the guy bids on the coins and wins. He pays and I send him the coins. I leave him positive feedback as soon as he has paid ( my mistake but I am an honest person) He receives the coins and tells me one of the coins has a spot on it. I offer him a 100% refund of his money including shipping if he will send it back to me. So here is where it starts to get nasty. The guy is a power seller on E-bay and feels like he can push people around. So he ask to get a similar coin from 2001 $1 MS 69 from my store that I am selling for $250, its a coin I recently bought from a dealer for $200. Now he starts demanding that I give him the $250 coin as a replacement for the $180 coin he won at the auction just because its a similar year 2001 MS69 coin that I have in my shop and that a refund is not good enough. As a seller on E-Bay he uses his right to leave negative feedback as a tool to push me to give him a coin he did not win at the auction. I just told him that he could do what he wanted to do and that a refund was all I could do for him. But what would you have done in the same situation ? Please let me know as I am sure other people has been scammed like this ? I also think that I am in my full right to tell the guy that a coin in my auction as I bought for a lower amount is different that a coin in my shop that I bought for a higher amount even though its the same coin same year same grade just different buying price. What do you guys think ?

Anyway just wanted to vent and make sure that nobody else get into the same situation with this guy as I just did.

WTC Gold Set 2001

Just a beautiful set and I wish I owned it, but I don't. The key to this set is the WTC $25 Gold coin. So if you want this set you have to get the $25 gold coin from somewhere. Also you next question would be was there a WTC $50 gold coin found at the vault. The answer to that question is yes, but that coin is even more scares but its available for the right price. This set was in may 2008 up for auction on E-bay.
