Lot Description

A remarkably brilliant, exceptionally lustrous MS68 FB example of this date, tied for FINEST GRADED. Well struck, the bands are all split and the central band is just shy of being fully rounded as well, which is why we think CAC did not bean this well preserved example. To think that it is one of only seven that survive in such a high grade (from an original mintage of over 1/4 BILLION). The surfaces are pristine and the eye appeal marvelous! PCGS 7, NGC 1. The last one sold in the 2015 ANA auction for $12,925 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $13,500. There is a record from a decade ago at $25,300. NOTE: NO MS68 FB has been approved by CAC, so we know that bidding action will be strong for this beauty. Good luck! Cert. Number 37652681 PCGS # 005051
