Lot Description

THE BIG CYPRESS COLLECTION This lovely AU is the sole AU50 approved by CAC, and is a pleasing and original example. A wealth of underlying flash is retained under a rich layer of tangerine toning. Nicely defined devices have just some light wear and there are no serious marks or hits of any kind. Only 4,850 examples were struck, and this AU has a great look. PCGS 46, NGC 20, CAC 1. The last AU50 graded by PCGS realized $2,640 in June 2022 and the current Collectors Universe value is listed at $2,500. We expect this example will bring a strong bid for the grade when it crosses the block, a very scarce issue in a fabulous collector grade. Cert. Number 27919995 PCGS # 7989
