Ex Col. Green/Newman, as noted on the insert. This delightful GEM is likely the FINEST KNOWN O-101 that exists! Certainly this is at the TOP of the Overton Condition Census, listed as 65,64,63,63,63 and is the highest grade example in Stephen Herrman's AMBPR's list of auction prices realized. There are three die marriages of the 27/6, all using the same obverse die in various die states, paired with different reverses. The traces of the underlying 6 are boldly visible with a glass. The reverse die on the O-101 was held over from 1826, (reverse "R" used to strike 1826 O-120), thus the reverse is a late die state with two dramatic die cracks. This GEM has a bold cartwheel luster that radiates with an incredible quantity of brilliance. The vibrance accentuates the gorgeous, totally original blend of iridescent toning. Shades of lavender, violet, and golden-brown dominate with subtle pastel hints that are brought out by the vivid flash. Razor sharp in strike, every detail is crisply rendered to their fullest. The eye appeal is truly an inspiration, stunning and divine. Ex. Col. E.H.R. Green Collection; Green Estate, purchased by St. Louis Stamp & Coin (partnership of Eric P. Newman and B.G. Johnson); Eric P. Newman Collection; Eric Newman Numismatic Education Society, Heritage, November 2013, lot 33455 (as NGC MS65 CAC); Dr. Charles Link Collection; our consignor, via private purchase, March 2021. PCGS 1, NGC 3, CAC 2. This coin is likely both coins on the CAC Population Report. No PCGS-graded MS65 has sold in auction since the 2006 FUN auction. In November 2013, as an NGC MS65 CAC, this spectacular GEM realized $18,800. The current CAC CPG value is $17,900 and the PCGS Price Guide is $16,500. Just five are graded finer, none of which are O-101. The only similar PCGS-graded example to sell recently was the PCGS MS66 CAC Pouge-Konstatine-O'Neal coin that most recently sold in our January 2020 for $37,600. This is a glorious example that is worthy of a very strong bid from the type, date, or variety collector. Cert. Number 25316304 PCGS # 6147.00
