Some dealers would sell as a $5,000 business strike, whether knowingly or not. Even experts can have difficulty distinguishing the difference. Sometimes, even PCGS and NGC call proofs business strikes and vice versa. The mint ran out of proofs for proof sets, so they substituted business strikes. To further confuse matters, some business strikes have proof reeding and vice versa! Many tallied in the population reports are resubmissions or crossovers of the same coins. Even so, NGC pop just 100 in ALL grades combined! The price sheets are far too low for this rare #1 key date. For proof (no pun intended), see our 90% Buyback Guarantee above. Key date inexplicably priced near common dates in proof, unlike other keys like 1877 cents and 1844 dimes, which can be worth nearly as much in proof as business strikes! Dealers and PCGS heavily market BILLION-mintage modern coins, which creates artificial demand, grossly inflated prices, and GIGANTIC profits. But they ignore this 625-mintage #1 key dime because it is far too rare to promote and from which to profit, so demand and thus prices stay absurdly low. Seriously, $10,500 PCGS Price Guide for a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny in two grades below MS70? And $10,000 for a "rare" 4.5 BILLION-mintage 1975-D cent in the same imperfect grade? We would not pay $5 for either. But we ask just $1,499 for this 625-mintage #1 key? Most modern coins can be bought at or near face value, melt value, or Mint-issue price; placed in a $4 plastic slab (PCGS bulk rate); and sold for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. But try doing that with with this 625-mintage #1 key. We only deal in truly rare coins, not fabricated illusions designed to make coin dealers rich. Ask your modern coin dealer if he will buy back for 90% less seller's fees, as we will for this rare coin. Or even 10%.
