Lot Description

FROM THE WOLVERINE COLLECTION. The Queller coin. A lovely lustrous, fully CHOICE example of this Civil War era Seated half. Although 658,000 coins were struck for circulation, the total combined PCGS and NGC population in all Mint State grades is a mere 30 coins! Lustrous and well struck both sides have a lovely gold and iridescent pastel tone. Well struck and very eye appealing. PCGS 6, NGC 4. This coin has been sold several times in the last few years. Prior to selling in our December 2017 Regency Auction, themost recent coin sold in auction realizing $4,700 in February 2015. A coin like this should see strong demand from collectors of Seated halves or Civil War era coins in general. With its important provenance, collectors will enjoy this CHOICE example. Cert.
