Lot Description

FROM THE CULLEN B COLLECTION The VAM-2 shows a boldly repunched S mintmark, and is listed among the TOP 100. This pleasing, high end GEM has a strong luster that glows all over the high quality surfaces. The devices are sharply struck, imparting a great look. One of the FINEST examples of this variety graded. For the variety PCGS has graded just 1 in MS65+ and three finer. For the date: PCGS 412, NGC 119, CAC 60. Just 23 are graded MS65+ at PCGS. The most recent example sold for $3,360 in April 2019 and we sold one in our January 2019 Regency Auction for $3,055. Unpriced at Collectors Universe in this grade, we can see a VAM specialist placing a strong bid for this one. For reference, the CU value in 65+ is $3,500. Cert. Number 35811875 PCGS # 007170
