The Regency Auction 52

详细说明: FROM THE OAK COLLECTION A truly fabulous example, Among the FINEST KNOWN examples of this VERY RARE date. Only 2,600 were struck, and few were saved in high grade, indeed it is a silent stopper in this series in Choice and Gem Mint State grades; PCGS has graded just this one coin in MS64+ with exactly three finer on their Population report. Intensely lustrous, flashy, and semi-Prooflike fields beam boldly on both sides. Rich coppery-orange toning graces areas of the reverse, giving depth and dimension to the outstanding quality and eye appeal. Only a tiny tick or two keeps this awesome looking coin from the GEM grade, mentioned here only for full disclosure--in the old days this coin would have been called a GEM. PCGS 3, NGC 4, CAC 1. The only recent comp is a PCGS MS64 PL CAC that we sold in the pre-Pandemic market for $27,025. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $37,500. It should be noted that the only PCGS MS64 sold over a decade ago, the MS65 has never sold, the MS66 coin sold in the October 1999 Bass sale is now the MS67+ PL (ex DiBello-Bass-Pogue). The MS67 that was in the Akers Collection is now the PCGS MS68 finest graded. Needless to say, this borderline-GEM will sell for a very strong bid, and will find itself at home in a fabulous set! Good luck. Cert. Number 37231861 PCGS # 7988
