- From the collection of Al C. Overton, as noted on the NGC label. In July 1993 Bonnie and Don Parsley (Al's daughter and son-in-law) sold the Overton Collection intact. I had the pleasure of brokering the sale to a collector who prefers anonymity. This coin was graded and encapsulated by NGC that year. It is in its original holder. Twenty years later the current owner of the collection agreed, for the first time, to part with a few duplicates. This coin, plated in Overton's 3rd, 4th and 5th editions, was among them. It was consigned to MB 37, my 2013 ANA Sale, where lot 125 brought $1,513 and was described as follows: A superb example of the late die state. Note the drawn stars and letters, the absence of dentils and an overall blunt appearance. Strong luster permeates the pale blue and light golden toning. The surfaces are immaculate save for an ancient scratch beneath the toning, between the eagle's beak and left wing. Est. $1,000 and up.
