Description du lot

FROM THE BEAR CREEK COLLECTION Among the top 30 examples graded by PCGS, it is a miracle that a coin struck during the first year of the tumult of the Civil War, could survive in near-GEM grade. The surfaces are remarkably clean for the date, with just a a few tiny lines seen in the fields of this satiny brilliant MS64. A delicate blush of pastel iridescent toning is dusted across both sides of this impressive and original example. PCGS 22, NGC 16, CAC 5. NO CAC-approved example has ever sold in auction. The most recent PCGS-graded example brought $8,236 in April 2017 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $11,000. RARE any finer, this date is represented by just 8 coins graded higher. Bound for a nice Seated dollar collection and will see strong bidding. Cert. Number 25614646 PCGS # 6951.00
