详细说明

Legend Rare Coin Auctions is honored to be able to offer this GEM 1871 dollar, one of the FINEST KNOWN examples of this conditionally challenging date. While 1,074,760 were struck, many were exported overseas, and though common in circulated grades, in Mint State this date is very scarce and is EXTREMELY RARE in GEM with PCGS CoinFacts estimating 7 survivors in MS65 or finer. Indeed including duplication in submissions, PCGS and NGC combined have graded 15 examples total. With no NGC coin sold in auction since 2005, perhaps most of those have been crossed over to PCGS but never taken off the Census. The present GEM has a warm, pearly, satin luster that glows vividly in the fields and the recesses of the design types. Well struck devices stand against the smooth, pleasing fields, which have a nice reflectivity on the reverse. Gold, apricot, rose, slate-blue, and pearly silver blend wonderfully on both sides. This coin has a great visual allure and is the epitome of GEM quality. PCGS 7, NGC 5. The most recent example realized $47,000 in the 2017 ANA auction, and before that, all PCGS coins to sell were CAC approved, bringing $48,175 and $49,250 back in 2015. The current PCGS Price Guide value in MS65 is $55,000. Just two coins are graded finer, a 65+ that sold for $60,000 in March 2019 and the MS66 that was part of the Legend Collection, has not sold in auction since 2005. This is a great coin that belongs in a great Seated Dollar collection. Bid accordingly! Cert. Number 38379608 PCGS # 6966.00
