Lot Description

THE BIG CYPRESS COLLECTION Ex Virginian Collection, as noted on the insert. This is a very pleasing and high end for the grade example of this Rarity-3 die pairing. Warm, original orange-gold surfaces are infused with a glowing underlying mint luster. Light contact marks are seen on both sides of this wonderful CHOICE AU example, none of which detract from the outstanding eye appeal. PCGS 67, NGC 150, CAC 7. This is the ONLY CAC-approved example that has ever sold via auction, realizing a very strong $5,040 in August 2022. A great looking, pedigreed example that will find itself in a pleasing collection of Classic Head gold coins. Cert. Number 39179225 PCGS # 765208
