Lot Description

FROM THE P.F.M. COLLECTION. Sitting at the pinnacle of the Population Report with 14 other reported examples, this satiny-white specimen is a very important "pop-top" example for the Registry Set collector. Sharply struck, frosty devices are surrounded by lustrous, untoned fields. PCGS 15, NGC 0. None are graded finer at PCGS, and the finest NGC has graded is MS65. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $4,000, however there are numerous records in the $6,000 to $8,250 range, going back nearly 20 years. This coin is ex. Heritage's July 2004 New York sale, lot 7016, where it realized $6,555. An attractive GEM worthy of inclusion in any high ranking Morgan Dollar Registry Set. Good luck! Cert. Number 50109039 PCGS # 7070
