Lot Description

K-10, regarded to be Rarity-5 in the Kagin book, now more like a low R-4. A very pleasing, original example of this popular Territorial type. Beautiful orange-gold color oozes from the surfaces. Moderately worn, the devices show ample definition throughout. A lovely example, one that clearly has not been dipped, stripped, and conserved as so many have been. The eye appeal is awesome. PCGS 30, NGC 5, CAC 2. This is not the one that sold for $5,875 back in the 2015 FUN auction, and more recently non-CAC PCGS coins have sold for $7,800. The current Collectors Universe value is $8,250 and you just don't see them like this too often. Good luck. Cert. Number 2663929-002 PCGS # 10187.00
