Lot Description

FROM THE DR. STEPHEN DAVIDSON COLLECTION Fewer than 30,000 examples of this date were struck, and are relatively scarce in GEM and finer grades. This example has a vibrant and brilliant luster that vividly accents the razor sharp devices. The eye appeal is wonderful. PCGS 95, NGC 84. The most recent examples sold earlier this year for $1,170 and $1,320 (September and August respectively) and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $1,500. A delightful example for a GEM short set of $2.50 Libs. Cert. Number 43765429 PCGS # 7849
