1846-O $2.50 MS (PCGS#7743)

The Regency Auction 29

详细说明: This coin ranks among the FINEST KNOWN of this very scarce New Orleans mint quarter eagle. Estimates suggest that about nine and twelve Mint State coins survive and this one ranks as third finest graded at NGC, PCGS has graded just two coins finer. This is a particularly attractive, fully CHOICE example. Boasting a very strong strike for the date, the details are each very well defined, except for some light weakness on the central reverse. Even with that, it is very crisp for a 46-O. The surfaces are delicately toned and there are just a few minor scuffs and ticks that account for the assigned grade, but none are distracting. The eye appeal is very high end! PCGS 1, NGC 3, CAC 2. It is interesting to note that NO PCGS coin in MS63 or MS64 has sold in auction since 2004. An NGC MS63 sold in the 2017 FUN auction for $12,925 and an NGC MS64 in October 2011 for $23,000. The current Collector's Universe value is listed at $21,000. This may well be the FINEST example that you will be able to obtain in quite some time. NGC has graded a 64 and a 66 finer; PCGS has graded a 64 and 65 finer, but these all seem to be locked away in advanced collections. Truly worthy of a great collection! Cert. Number 3319451-004 PCGS # 7743
