Lot Description

At first glance we thought this GEM was a DMPL. The Prooflike qualities of this coin are off the charts, and if the reverse mirrors were just a little deeper we could see this coin in a DMPL holder. The sharply struck devices are fully frosted and stand out against the mirrored fields with a full cameo contrast on the obverse. The eye appeal is amazing for a PL with very minimal traces of contact. PCGS 163, NGC 103, CAC 17. There are just 8 graded MS65+ PL. The only one to sell realized $1,998 in June 2017 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $2,000. RARE finer and this GEM is worthy of a strong bid. Cert. Number 37757721 PCGS # 7251
