一枚超極罕見的硬幣賣出了超過500,000美元的價格。自上世紀70年代末以來,這枚硬幣就一直下落不明。
這枚硬幣由位于舊金山的美國鑄幣廠(U.S. Mint)于1975年鑄造,正面是富蘭克林·D·羅斯福總統(tǒng)的頭像,是已知僅存的兩枚無“S”鑄幣標記的硬幣之一。
來自俄亥俄州的三姐妹在兄弟去世后繼承了這枚10美分硬幣。這枚硬幣在他去世前已在銀行保險柜中保存了40多年。
據加州爾灣的拍賣行GreatCollections的總裁伊恩·羅塞爾表示,在周日結束的在線拍賣會上,這枚硬幣以506,250美元的價格成交。(財富中文網)

An extraordinarily rare dime whose whereabouts had remained a mystery since the late 1970s has sold for just over $500,000.
The coin, which was struck by the U.S. Mint in San Francisco in 1975, depicts President Franklin D. Roosevelt and is one of just two known to exist without its distinctive “S” mint mark.
Three sisters from Ohio inherited the dime after the death of their brother, who had kept it in a bank vault for more than 40 years.
The coin sold for $506,250 in an online auction that concluded Sunday, according to Ian Russell, president of GreatCollections, an auction house based in Irvine, California.
