The Regency Auction 53

详细说明: FROM THE M & S PETTY COLLECTION A lovely and totally original example, tied for second FINEST graded of the date. The entire mintage of 24,500 was produced by a single die pair. While somewhat available as a date in circulated grades, Mint State coins are VERY RARE, and this date is UNIQUE any finer. A warm golden-gray patina envelopes both sides and as you rotate the coin in a light, the underlying mint brilliance highlights some azure and lilac hues, particularly on the reverse. The surfaces are exceptionally CHOICE and very pleasing. Overall the details were crisply rendered by the press, but there are some areas of the slightest weakness as typically seen on this date. A strong glass reveals a tiny mark or two that prevents a higher grade, but they have little impact on the outstanding visual allure of this high end Condition Census early Seated dollar. Ex Legend Numismatics, via private treaty to our consignor. PCGS 3, NGC 3, CAC 2. The only PCGS/CAC example to sell in auction was the Eliasberg-Gardner example back in May 2015 (seven years ago) for $31,725. The current CAC CPG value is $30,000 and the PCGS Price Guide value is $27,500. With only the Norweb-Legend-Hansen MS64 finer, the opportunity to acquire a very high end example of this date is fleeting. Do not let this coin slip away. Cert. Number 25596529 PCGS # 6931
