Lot Description

FROM THE HANOVER COLLECTION The SINGLE FINEST graded of this scarce Doubled Die Obverse variety. The doubling is most readily evident at LIBERTY and 1939, with traces at Lincoln's ear. Not only is this SUPERB GEM the FINEST of the variety, but it is also among the FINEST for the date as well. Fiery RED mint luster blazes with a bold, original brilliance that belies the pristine surface quality and sharp strike that is seen on both sides. The eye appeal is exceptional in every way. PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 56. (The CAC population includes all 1939 examples in MS67 and MS67+ RD graded). Collectors Universe lists a value of $5,000 for this Top Pop grade, with the finest to ever sell grading MS66 RD, this is a very important coin for the specialist collector. Anticipate very strong bidding for this one when it crosses the block. Cert. Number 81348460 PCGS # 002677
