The Regency Auction 34

详细说明: Simply put, this is is a STUNNING Proof Liberty quarter eagle! Everything about it screams eye appeal and premium quality. Of the 136 Proofs produced, perhaps 70-80 survive today in all grades. The presently offered SUPERB GEM is housed in an older generation blue tag holder and is totally original. Deep, beaming mirrors blaze with a bold depth of clarity that can be seen from across the room. Rich orange-gold coloration attests to the exceptional fresh, unconserved surfaces. The devices are razor sharp with a thick frost on both sides. The orange peal texture is quite strong with the fields looking like a rippling pond. The eye appeal is amazing. PCGS 4, NGC 7, CAC 8. There has not been a CAC-approved example sold in eight years--last selling for $28,750 in the 2011 ANA auction. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $27,500 and that seem too low in light of the true rarity of PCGS-graded examples. While PCGS lists 10 graded higher in the designation, only one has ever sold in auction (in May 2009 a PR67 DCAM CAC sold for $37,375). This is a very rare and important opportunity for any gold bug looking for a great Proof gold type coin. Good luck! Cert. Number 21656539 PCGS # 097923
