How long before we hear how much more it would have sold for in a PCGS
holder?

Makes one wonder why supercoins like this that receive so much scrutiny would
have to be professionally graded at all. Anyone want to bet that no one had to
pay NGC a grading fee?

Very little is gained at all other than a guarantee of provenance. But,
then again, this is the "finest known". Some might have to see a grade
to believe that.

Not me....the bragging rights are worth more than the fees.
