- Lot Description
- Barry Holt Collection. The aluminum horseshoe frame itself, referenced to Band & Ratcliffeout of Pulaski, VA, has taken the brunt of wear but courageously protected the encased, key 1914-D cent which grades AU-58. The cataloger has seen only a single other example of this near-"Holy Grail" of encased cents. Unusually and unexpectedly attractive ebony-brown surfaces pervade for the cent, which also features an outstanding strike.
