Lot Description

FROM THE STEVEN COOK COLLECTION OF PATTERNS, PART 1. R-1. Adopted designs of 1859, but dated 1858. Struck in copper-nickel with a plain edge. Highly reflective copper-nickel surfaces and sharply struck, frosty devices have a nearly cameo-like reflection. Very pleasing to the eye, this CHOICE coin has some minor flecks that account for the grade. PCGS 39, NGC 18. The most recent example realized $1,920 in March 2018 and in the 2018 FUN auction, one sold for $2,040. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $1,850 and this coin should sell for somewhere around that. Cert. Number 21300829 PCGS # 11885
