Lot Description

THE BOYLSTON COLLECTION, PART IV A wonderfully CHOICE example! Fewer than three-quarters of a million pieces were struck of this first year of the Motto reverse type. A thick, frosty satin sheen glows on this well struck MS63. A hint of pearly silver and faint gold gives this lovely piece. Light die and planchet roller lines are seen the fields on both sides. The eye appeal is lovely. PCGS 13, NGC 7. The last example to sell was in December 2019. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $2,250 and it nearly doubles going up to MS64. This is an uncommon date that should delight the collector. Cert. Number 35997455 PCGS # 6319
