Lot Description

BD-6, the only variety with the Round 6. This marriage was a workhorse striking perhaps 35,000-50,000 of the 64,000+ struck for the date. While available, finding a NICE example is still very tough! A soft, satin glow mingles in the fields around bluntly struck devices. The strike shows typical weakness in areas, but the overall eye appeal is excellent. PCGS 73, NGC 26, CAC 15. The most recent examples to sell in auction were in the 2017 FUN auction realizing $16,626 and $21,150. The current PCGS Price Guide price is listed at $20,000. Certainly worthy of a premium bid for its originality and good look! Worthy of any high grade early gold type or date set. Cert. Number 25793393 PCGS # 8089
