Lot Description

ULTRA HIGH END and totally amazing everything. Now this IS Legend Auctions type of quality! This coin is more than worthy of being tied for second FINEST graded for the date. Hard to believe PCGS actually has graded two in PR69 ( one is in the monster #1 Forsythe Collection). Sensational satin surfaces are smooth and are remarkably clean. Even using a microscope, you will find NO impairments. A really strong luster boldly illuminates the totally original rainbow colors Mother Nature has spread all around the peripheries. You do NOT have to tilt this coin to see the color (and the colors are NOT dusky). Every detail is pinpoint sharp in strike. The eye appeal is wild! PCGS 3, NGC 1. The only one to ever sell was the CAC-approved coin that brought $13,513 in our September 2016 Regency Auction--that was almost 3 years ago now. The eye appeal of this rainbow toned SUPERB GEM is even better (and is better than the NGC PR68+* that sold in the 2015 ANA sale for $12,339. Collector's Universe lists the value at $15,250 and with its STUNNING looks, this one could surpass that level. Bound for the FINEST of Buffalo Nickel Proof sets. Cert. Number 36774423 PCGS # 3994
