Lot Description

A Condition Census O-106 and a very attractive example that is of very close to GEM quality. Highly lustrous with a bold satiny frost that beautifully accents the sharply struck devices. This set of dies shows lots of very interesting clash marks and die cracks. A touch of pale patina on the peripheries frame the bold and brilliant silver centers. The eye appeal is SUPERB. PCGS 33, NGC 5, CAC 15. Only four PCGS/CAC coins have ever sold in auction. The most recent sold for $5,170 nearly two years ago at the 2016 ANA . Earlier in 2016, one sold for $5,875 and prior to that, these were selling for over $7,000 and the current CU value is listed at $7,500. Any coin graded finer will bring five figures, and the last MS65 graded by PCGS/CAC sold for $19,388 in our July 2017 Regency Auction. This very pretty example will see very strong bidding from type or early half dollar collectors alike. Good luck! Cert. Number 35109499 PCGS # 6097
