Lot Description

A registry set collector’s dream.  Pop 1!  A blast of luster greets the eye when you examine this untoned, fully struck little princess.  There is but a whisper of friction on Liberty’s cheek.  The fields, with a few wispy hairlines, are utterly free of contact marks.  We may be sure of two things: 1. the coin never saw circulation; and 2. there will be a battle-royal for custody of this final lot in the sale.  Est. $10,000 and up.
