1870 25C J-916, CAM PR (PCGS#800009)

The Regency Auction 31

Losbeschreibung: Ex Simpson Collection. This is an extremely RARE Standard Silver pattern quarter, rated R-7+ (4-6 minted). Barber's portrait of Liberty wears a tiara with no stars. Struck in aluminum with a reeded edge. What an amazing SUPERB GEM! Clearly the FINEST extant example of this VERY RARE Judd number! The mirrors are deep and watery and beam from all over. The surfaces, save for a small area of roughness in the planchet in the obverse right field (mint made), are FLAWLESS! Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck and have a thick frosty texture. The eye appeal is excellent! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. This is the FINEST J-916 known. In fact, overall in ANY Aluminum Pattern design there are very few PR67's. There is a $10,000 Collectors Universe Value, but of course, NONE have ever sold in auction. Opportunity knocks loud here! Cert. Number 30932288 PCGS # 800009
