Lot Description

O-116. Beautifully toned and a lovely, lustrous GEM quality Capped Bust half. Dappled teal, blue, and rose patina graces both sides. The devices are well struck overall with just a hint of weakness in spots. A brilliant, swirling cartwheel luster highlights the lovely color throughout, giving the coin a great look. PCGS 15, NGC 7. This GEM was purchased back in December 2011 for $9,660 (Teletrade). The current Collector's Universe value is listed at $8,500. We sold a PCGS MS65 in our July 2017 Regency Auction for $5,758. RARE any finer with PCGS having graded only five coins higher. It after seeing this many GEMS in one place, you might start to believe that they are common. THEY ARE NOT! Clearly this sale is an embarrassment of riches, and a very important opportunity to acquire superb coins for type or date purposes. DO not let this one slip away! Cert. Number 25034665 PCGS # 6166
