The Regency Auction 52

详细说明: FROM THE DALE FRIEND COLLECTION, PART II. This is the ABSOLUTE FINEST KNOWN 1811 O-107 that exists. A challenging Rarity-4 die pairing, this SUPERB GEM is off the charts original and high end. A bold cartwheel luster radiates with a full, vibrant brilliance. Crisply defined details are sharply rendered from an advanced state of the reverse die. The reverse shows a network of dramatic die breaks that encircle the legends. The obverse stars have begun to be drawn to the edge, and the legends on the reverse are really drawn to the edge. There is an interesting area at 1:00 on the obverse rim, and corresponding place at the reverse rim. Likely a minor clipped planchet. Both sides are richly toned, but not dark, so the luster is unobstructed by the original toning. Shades of gray-blue, russet-peach, and antique silver meld together, imparted from long term storage in an old collector envelope. What a great coin! Ex Phil Kaufman Collection; Joseph C. Thomas Collection, Heritage, April 2009, lot 2409; Dale Friend Collection. PCGS 3, NGC 10, CAC 4. There are two MS66+ examples graded by PCGS and just two graded finer. It has been nine years since a PCGS MS66 has sold in auction and nearly seven since a PCGS MS67 has sold in auction. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $75,000. No doubt this SUPERB GEM will see very strong bidding and is perfect for an advanced type or date set. Good luck! Cert. Number 35594625 PCGS # 6097
