GREEK COIN SELLS FOR 19000 USD
a Greek 40 drachma coin of 1852 brought 19000 usd,said to be the highest price ever paid for a foreign gold coin,at the Stacks public auction sale at the Alfred R Globus collection in New York late last year.The coin one of the two known examples was graded about extra fine.It formerly was part of the Dreesman collection,and brought only 9100 guilders or approximately 2250 usd the last time it was ####,5 years ago.
Stacks identified the purchaser as an eastern physician of Greek extraction who bought it partly because of his interest of numismatics and partly because of his pride of his ancenstry.
The 19000 usd was the highest price ever paid in sale for a foreign gold coin.
