Lot Description

Tied for finest graded at PCGS. The final year of Proof Barber coinage is among the scarcest of the issues, with a very low mintage of 450 pieces. Few coins were well produced and few survive with such abundant eye appeal. Deep iridescent toning is brought out by a bold watery reflective mirrored fields. The eye appeal is excellent to say the least. PCGS 11, NGC 18, CAC 13. Only four of these are graded PR67+, and NONE are graded finer at PCGS. Only one other PCGS PR67+ has ever sold in auction, a similarly toned SUPERB GEM that realized $16,450 in April 2015. With this coin’s stunning good looks, we think a similar realization is quite possible, even in the current market. The current PCGS Price Guide is $14,500. What a great coin to use as a capstone for any superb set of PR Barbers. PCGS # 6562 Cert. Number 83774373 PCGS # 6562
