Lincoln police are looking for a man who grabbed a rare coin from a dealer and ran.

Investigators say it happened Thursday at the Coinery. The owner says a man came in and asked to see some coins. The owner says when he brought out a tray with large coins on it, the man grabbed an 1875 Gold Double Eagle and ran.

The coin is very rare and worth about $950.
