Lot Description

A marvelous SUPERB GEM, tied for FINEST in the designation for the date at PCGS. Watery mirrors are a delight to behold. The reflection is deep, bold, beaming and brilliant, and the surfaces are the epitome of perfection. The fields are sleek and smooth, like a fresh sheet of ice. A dusting of the palest patina can be seen on both sides, particularly colorful at the upper reverse rim. A truly wonderful example. Only 975 Proofs were struck. PCGS 4, NGC 5, CAC 2. This is the coin that sold back in April 2012 for $9,488. The current CAC CPG value is $10,500 and the PCGS Price Guide is $8,750. With NONE FINER in the designation, and only the following lot finer for the date, we have no doubt this beauty will attract very strong bidding! Good luck. Cert. Number 25533129 PCGS # 6442
