Lot Description

Flashy deeply reflective mirrored fields have a bold luster that contrasts against the well struck devices that have a thick, white frost, creating a nice cameo-like contrast. Despite a mintage well over 12 million, DMPLS make up a very tiny proportion of survivors, and GEMS are especially difficult to find. PCGS 100, NGC 35. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $1,250 and the two most recent APRs are in excess of that amount: $1,440 in the 2020 FUN auction and $2,040 in April 2019. Keep in mind that there are just 41 graded finer at PCGS and are VERY difficult to find. Cert. Number 36175957 PCGS # 97143.00
