The Regency Auction 39

详细说明: FROM THE BIGMO CIVIL WAR COLLECTION In the pre third party certification days, this coin would have been offered as Uncirculated. It is that HIGH END! Superior surfaces have no major problems. In fact, the only way you can see any ticks is by using a strong glass. Surprisingly, the luster is strong and is radiant and both sides are a brilliant gold color; you can even detect a faint trace of semi-prooflike mirrors. There are NO spots or discolorations anywhere. The wear is very light and is hard to find. Miss Liberty and the details are very well struck and standout. The eye appeal is fantastic! Larger gold coins were in more demand from the mint’s production and as a result the mintage of quarter eagles dropped. Of the 8,000 struck, PCGS CoinFacts estimates that perhaps 1% or 80 examples survive in all grades. David Akers said this date was very rare and underrated in all grades. This date is EXTREMELY RARE in Mint State, making AU58 a great grade for most collectors. PCGS 9, NGC 17, CAC 3. PCGS has possibly graded only 8 coins higher. The last PCGS CAC piece sold in auction back in 2011! Price guides today for this coin are totally incorrect. Regardless, to find any S Mint Civil War gold piece in such a rare state of preservation is wild. Keep in mind, this coin survived 158 years of wars and circulation. Here is a chance to win a great piece of history! Cert. Number 25252667 PCGS # 7798
