Lot Description

Ex Fairmont Collection, as noted on the insert. A wonderfully CHOICE example for the grade; totally original and very pleasing. Mid-grade southern mint gold is always a popular series, with a dedicated collector base for coins like this that was awakened by the series of sales of the Fairmont Collection over the last few years. A deeper orange gold patina graces both sides, giving this one a great look. Better than typical surfaces for the date/grade, the eye appeal is excellent. PCGS 30, NGC 17, CAC 5. This coin last sold in June 2021 for $5,520, a very strong price commensurate with the quality. Bound for a very cool collection of gold coins. Do not let this one get away! Cert.
