1859 $3 MS (PCGS#7979)

The Regency Auction 52

详细说明: FROM THE OAK COLLECTION A fabulous GEM quality 1859! Tied for SECOND FINEST graded for the date at PCGS, this is a glorious, totally original piece! PCGS CoinFacts estimates that perhaps 10% of the original mintage of 15,589 struck survives today; of that number only 10 are in GEM or finer quality. The deep, tangerine-rose gold patination undulates with a bold depth of brilliant mint luster. The luster boasts some Prooflike texture in the fields, reflecting the light boldly. The surfaces have some minute lines, and traces of subtle contact, but they do not distract from the SUPERB visual allure of this beautiful coin. PCGS 6, NGC 3, CAC 3. No CAC-approved MS65 example has ever sold in auction. The most recent MS65 to sell was in $16,800 in April 2019 and before that, the Pogue coin sold for $21,150 in February 2016. The current Collectors Universe value is $26,500 and the CAC CPG value is $24,500. We know this CAC approved GEM will bring more! Just three MS66s have been graded higher at PCGS, and none have received CAC approval. Bound for a world class set of $3 gold pieces and we know it will bring a strong bid. Cert. Number 40497236 PCGS # 7979
