Lot Description

BD-1, R-4+. A very attractive "slider'" that is worthy of any high-end gold type set. Sharply struck with only the slightest friction in the fields and the highest points. Flashy lustrous surfaces truly attract the viewer to them. We love early gold when it looks like this. So many have been messed with. PCGS 30, NGC 8, CAC 8. The last PCGS-graded coin to sell in auction realized $16,450 and was NOT CAC. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $19,000. A very scarce coin, and this one has the "magic" 1804 date. Cert. Number 28276720 PCGS # 8085
