Lot Description

An incredible GEM example This coin has deep, rich, mint bloom and luster with pretty orange peel toning accents. Although there is a tick or two on the coin, the luster and eye appeal win the day. PCGS 5, NGC 3, CAC 3. There is only one 64+, this coin! Just 5 coins grade finer at PCGS. Collectors Universe Price Guide is $6,000. No recent trades, just a straight CAC MS64 PCGS piece which sold for $5,405 in August 2016. A SLEEPER date which has gone unrecognized by many, but here is the wake up call. With no MS65 or 65+ graded pieces available in either PCGS or NGC holders, this is your ONLY opportunity to grab a cherry piece for a fraction of the price of an MS66 example! MS66’s trade for over $15,000. Not many opportunities to obtain a Gem Mint State example, so strike while the iron is hot. Cert. Number 38798636 PCGS # 8395.00
