However even the experts were stunned when on September 23rd, 2013, instead of the expected $1.5 million USD, the coin fetched $2.75 million USD, placing it amongst the 10 most valuable US coins sold at an auction.

    If I was a mint engraver I would have coins for every planet because there has never been a planet coin before. It would be worth $900,000. It would be colored because the planets are different colors.

      If I was a mint engraver the special coin I would make would be one with a family. A family of 10. 3 dogs 4 kids 2 parents and a cat. And all around them there would be beautiful ancient, ancient, ancient art. They'd be in like an art muesam. A muesam that aloud dogs and cats. The paintings would usally be OF animals(cats, dogs, horses, and farm animals etc........).. ANYWAY the engraving would have flowers etched around the rim it would be flowers then the picture. Also the engraving would be so detailed that even with a rusty, old , dirty coin, you'd be able to tell what it was. The reason I'd pick this is because, I think family's are sweet and dogs are my soft spot. Also I like cat's.

          If i were a mint engraver I would put a pine on the front and write our school name on the back! i would also put our teachers name under the pine tree because she really deserves to have her name on a coin because she is really good a teaching! It is like her special talent!

                  i i was a Mint engraver i would make a holiday coin collection(Christmas,Easter,Halloween) they would each cost 10 dollars and sell for about 500,000 dollars... i would make more collections than just this making the prices higher or lower on how valuable they are, i would help the world become a better place one child at a time i would build schools,and get orphans parents, and i would also give food,water, and shelter to families who need it... this would be great if anyone did this... hopefully someday some people won't be so greedy and share... that's also a reason why you should be thankful for what you have.
