Lot Description

FROM THE BOYLSTON COLLECTION PART III This is a BLAZING, ultra brilliant reflective SUPERB GEM that has stunning cameo contrast and is the second HIGHEST GRADED CAMEO Proof any NGC; finer than anything PCGS CAM has ever graded. Incredible, deeply beaming mirrors have a chrome-like flash and stunning brilliance. The razor sharp devices have a thick mint frosted texture that stands out like an iceberg out in a blackened ocean. The eye appeal is truly amazing! Only 460 Proofs were struck. PCGS 0, NGC 1. This coin last sold in the May 2015 sale of the Gene Gardner Collection, realizing $16,450. The Collectors Universe Price Guide does not list a value in this high a grade. Remarkably there is a a PR68 CAM at NGC finer, a coin not seen at auction since 2005, when it realized $48,875. This incredible SUPERB GEM has a look that cannot be beat--it looks like it just came off the dies! Cert. Number 3815622003 PCGS # 86417
