- Sorting through a legion of generously graded, questionably toned, surface marked, damaged and chemically treated 1815’s is a chore many collectors have found disheartening. Here is a breath of fresh air. The Davignon 1815 has been off the market for 23 years. It will be remembered for years to come. “Original!” is the one word Keith wrote when he placed a sticker on the PCGS capsule. He might have added, “A+ for eye-appeal.” The coin is encased in a patina of antique grey, electrically charged with infusions of gold, copper and related autumn colors. The lightly clashed surfaces are free of contact marks. In short, this is a coin for the ages. Congratulations, a hug and hearty handshake to the successful bidder! A private acquisition from your cataloguer in November 1993. Wish I could remember where I picked it up! Est. $15,000 and up
