- FROM THE DALE FRIEND COLLECTION, PART I. Another wonderfully CHOICE and HIGH END AU example that ranks in the lower Condition Census for the die pairing. The B-13, BB-108 variety is listed at Rarity-3, and while common overall, it is QUITE RARE in high AU grades and EXTREMELY RARE in Mint State. It is one of two die pairs that use this reverse die that have only 10 Arrows in the eagle's talon. This "super slider" has a lot to offer the collector. A fully brilliant, satiny mint luster rolls undisturbed over essentially Mint State surfaces. The surfaces show few serious blemishes, mostly limited to a few tiny lines and ticks, but these are all mostly hidden by the gentle dusting of pastel iridescent toning. The pastel hues vary, very opal-like, when rotating the surfaces in a light. Shades of lilac, rose, pink, sky blue, soft green, and accents of deeper violet mingle on both sides. The definition is quite bold throughout, with just a hint of friction on the high points and some very minor weakness on the eagle's breast feathers. The eye appeal is truly wonderful and a delight to behold. The Bowers (2013) Condition Census is 63-61-60-58 (multiples); this 58+ is squarely in that range. This impressive coin does not match any of the examples listed in the list of "Notable Specimens." PCGS 2, NGC 2. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $22,500 and we think this coin will bring around that level when the hammer falls. RARE in Mint State, this coin is great for the type or date collector and will fit nicely in the ultimate "Everyman" set. Cert. Number 16373917 PCGS # 40025
