Description du lot

Ex Norweb and Henry Hilgard  Lot 3082 from B&M’s Nov. 1988 sale of the Norweb Collection, offered as a raw AU.  I purchased the coin ($522) as agent for my late, great friend Henry Hilgard.  If you knew Henry, you expect the coin to be well struck, have original color and immaculate surfaces.  This one qualifies – in spades.  The toning is spectacular, the surfaces smooth as glass.  Henry agreed to part with the coin in September 1989.  Tim did not hesitate.  This is a “WOW” AU 53 with a wonderful pedigree - and an R.4 to boot!   Estimate: $700 to $900
