SUPERB! We are kind of shocked this coin did not bean at CAC. We think the culprit is a tiny tick well hidden in the hair. Superior surfaces appear clean and satiny smooth. Only with a strong glass can you see an isolated frost break or two. The surface texture is thick and satiny. A full booming luster beams from all over. Both sides are a wonderful dreamy original gold color. There are no spots or stains. Every detail is frosty and is sharply struck. The eye appeal is terrific! PCGS 18, NGC 11. The prices realized in auction are too all over for us to comment on them. We can say, the Collectors Universe Value is $15,000. With only two graded higher, we think even the value is too low. After 30+ years, PCGS has graded only 16, and that is not many at all. There is little question as to why the Crow River collector originally chose this coin to place in his awesome record breaking set. Cert. Number 25589099 PCGS # 8873
