Losbeschreibung

Ex Simpson Collection, as noted on the insert. This is a glorious O-103, the second FINEST KNOWN of this Rarity-3 die marriage. The Overton Condition Census ranges from MS66 to MS63, and this one is just below the NGC MS66 O-106a. A Premium GEM quality example, struck from deeply clashed dies (both sides show incused mirror impressions from the opposite side). Every detail is extremely sharp with razor definition. An intense cartwheel luster blazes its way around the defect free surfaces, similar to a GEM 1881-S dollar. Ultra rich teal and cobalt blue patina graces both sides with peach-tinged silver near the peripheries that is highlighted by the radiating brilliance. The eye appeal is spectacular! WOW!!! Ex 2007 ANA Auction, Heritage, August 2007, lot 1680; Bob R. Simpson Collection; Selections of the Bob R. Simpson Collection, Part IV, Heritage, February 2021, lot 3056; our consignor. PCGS 2, NGC 0. This coin realized $26,400 in February 2021 and the current Collectors Universe value is listed at $45,000. There is just a single MS66 graded finer by PCGS, a coin that has not been seen at auction in a GENERATION! This is a spectacular coin from one of the greatest collections of all time! Cert. Number 40275012 PCGS # 6096.00
