Lot Description

A very pretty and highly lustrous GEM. Mostly red surfaces that are slightly mellowing with hints of a violet hue when the lustrous surfaces are rotated in a light. Mostly well struck and a very pleasing N-20, that is devoid of all but the most insignificant fleck or two. PCGS 25, NGC 12, CAC 2. The other CAC example is the Twin Leaf N-29 that realized $3,290 in July 2015. The currently offered coin has MUCH more Red than the Twin Leaf coin, and should realize closer to the CU value of $3,500. PCGS # 1878 Certification Number 82417277 PCGS # 1878
