1866 $2.50, DCAM PR (PCGS#97892)

The Regency Auction 28

Lot Description: LRCA is thrilled to have been consigned this exceedingly rare and marvelous GEM. The quality is VERY high end. Super deep mirrors beam intensely from all over. The mirrors are super clean, have strong clarity, and are super flashy. When you twirl the coin, the mirrors look like a freshly made sheet of glass with a slight "watery" roll. The contrast is stunning. Both sides have a beautiful moderate orange gold color. There are NO spots or discoloration. Miss Liberty and the details are needle sharp in strike and have thick frost. The details almost look 3-D! The eye appeal is awesome and then some! ONLY 30 were minted. NO PR 65 has ever been sold via auction. The current Collector's Universe value is only $49,500-a number that seems too low. You will see we have much more respect for this date, grade, and coin in our estimate. We looked for comps-and found NONE. ALL these pre 1870 Proofs are exceedingly rare. If you buy better GEM gold or are building a world class gold proof set, this coin is a "must buy!" Be prepared for strong bidding here. Cert. Number 21674013 PCGS # 97892
