Ex D. Brent Pogue Collection, as noted on the insert. This richly toned GEM O-110 is the FINEST KNOWN of the variety. Its exceptionally well preserved for this date, which is available in circulated grades, but Choice and Gem Mint State pieces are quite rare indeed! Deep violet-tinged slate-gray patina shows off sparkling amber-gold and olive-tan accents, which come out boldly when the sensationally brilliant cartwheel luster catches the light. Sharply struck from a clashed pair of dies. The obverse die was misaligned with the left side of the obverse showing bold denticulation and the right side devoid of dentils. The later state of the dies show the stars drawn to the edge, and zero visible milling and letters drawn to the edge on the reverse. There are heavy flow lines from substantial die fatigue seen on both sides as well. The surfaces are nearly devoid of any serious contact, nothing is visible to the naked eye. The eye appeal is excellent. Ex Douglas Noblet Collection, Bowers & Merena, January 1999, lot 19; Heritage, October 2001, lot 6555; Heritage, July 2003, lot 7379; ANR's January 2004 Classics Sale, lot 1464; Larry Hanks, to D. Brent Pogue, via private treaty in March 2004; D. Brent Pogue Collection, Part II, Stack's Bowers/ Sotheby's, September 2015, lot 2009; to our consignor. PCGS 1, NGC 6, CAC 1. The current Collectors Universe and CAC CPG values are essentially the same, $27,500 and $27,600 respectively, and this coin sold for $25,850 six years ago in the Pogue auction. There are two MS66s graded by PCGS finer, neither of which have ever sold in auction, but would likely bring double what this colorful GEM would if it crossed the block today. Cert.
