1844 $5 MS (PCGS#8219)

The Regency Auction 45

详细说明: A very high grade survivor of this early No Motto date. The 340,330 mintage figure allows this date to be available to collectors in circulated grades, but Mint State survivors are quite scarce indeed (despite the fact that the Bass Collection had six). The presently offered CHOICE and ORIGINAL MS63 ranks to the lower end of the Condition Census with PCGS grading just seven coins finer. The devices are sharply impressed with pinpoint precision. The surfaces are richly toned, clearly, this really choice piece sat unmolested in a paper envelope which left a layer of original toning over the satiny frosted luster. The eye appeal is exceptional. PCGS 6, NGC 9, CAC 4. The most recent example sold in February 2019 for $10,800 and prior to that, one sold for $12,000. This coin matches nicely to Bass2:930 which sold for nearly $15,000 back in 1999 (but struck from a different die). There are only seven finer at PCGS, the FINEST being the MS65 that sold for $50,025 in May 2005. This is a great coin for any gold collector. Whether you need this coin for type or date purposes, it will look great in your set! Good luck. Cert. Number 34716526 PCGS # 8219.00
