Lot Description

A glorious and lustrous PQ GEM example. Glowing mint bloom enhances clean, distraction free surfaces. The obverse has a distinctive, flashy, almost Prooflike reflection in the fields. The well struck devices are frosty and both sides show extensive die cracks. The eye appeal is quite nice. PCGS 18, NGC 14, CAC 11. There are just two coins graded finer at PCGS, both MS66+. The last three PCGS/CAC coins have sold in the $1,560 to $1,980 range, and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $1,950. The two 66+s have never sold in auction. Bound for a high end set! Good luck! Cert. Number 27598046 PCGS # 003796
