Lot Description
This is such a COOL piece! As the second most worn example graded by PCGS, this VF25 clearly was carried as a "pocket" piece, possibly by some well healed collector who wanted to show it off! Imagine carrying around nearly 2.5 ounces of gold just to show off! A major 20th century rarity, with only 483 examples sold. Moderate wear has blended some of the devices into the surrounding areas, but there is a ton of retained luster in the protected parts of the devices. The surfaces are surprisingly free and clear of any cuts or significant abrasions of any kind on either side. Again what a really COOL coin! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. Just a single VG8 is graded lower, so anyone working on a "lowball" Commemorative set has very few to select from. The eye appeal is really nice for the grade and there are no auction records for any numerically graded examples below AU55! An AU-details coin sold for $48,000 in April 2019. The current Collectors Universe value in this grade is $43,000. We think this is a really cool piece that will see surprisingly strong bidding when the hammer falls Good luck! Cert. Number 21053686 PCGS # 7451.00
