The Regency Auction 43

Lot Description: An AMAZING SUPERB GEM example of this incredibly RARE Standard Silver quarter Pattern. This is CLEARLY THE FINEST KNOWN example! Rated Rarity-7+ (4-6 minted), and features Barber's portrait of Liberty with a starless tiara. Struck in Aluminum with a reeded edge. Stunning, blinding reflectivity beams from the icy smooth mirrored fields. The mirrors are deep and watery and beam from all over. Save for a tiny area of planchet roughness (mint made) the surfaces are FLAWLESS and bold! The razor sharp definition on both sides are further enhanced by a thick frost creating a seductive contrast. There is no haze or any carbon flecks of any kind. The eye appeal is off the charts amazing! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. In the entire pattern series there are very few PR67+s graded! This happens to be one of the greatest examples of the entire 200+ Judd number subseries of Standard Silver patterns and will be a treasured coin for the next owner. It is amazing that an aluminum coin could remain so pristine for all these years! Cert. Number 41460236 PCGS # 800009.00
