1868 2C, RD PR (PCGS#3638)

The Regency Auction 34

Lot Description: An extremely tough date to find so fine! Rarely are these seen at or above the PR66 RD level, and this one is quite high end for the issue. Both sides have superior, clean, crystal clear, intensely reflective mirrors. While the color is a rich Mint red, there are some mellow violet tones mixed with a hint of gold; but the original mint red dominates. All of the details are sharply struck and lightly frosted (indeed at certain angles, there is some cameo contrast). The eye appeal is tremendous! PCGS 14, NGC 8. The most recent example sold in June 2017 for $6,169 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is $5,500. Keep in mind that if you wanted one of the PR67 RDs (Pop. 2), you would have to spend around $25,000! Bound for a great set! Good luck! Cert. Number 37692070 PCGS # 003638
