The Regency Auction 57

Lot Description: THE BOYLSTON COLLECTION, PART IV WOW! This is the SOLE example of this Rarity-5 Judd number to be graded in the CAMEO designation at PCGS. A combination of a regular Proof 1862 obverse and a pattern reverse with GOD OUR TRUST in a ribbon above the eagle's head. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. Extremely deep mirrors beam boldly on the obverse, while the reverse is more satiny. The reverse shows heavy lines, as made. The details are razor sharp with a thick frosted texture. The eye appeal is alluring. PCGS 1, NGC 0. This coin brought $4,560 in the 2019 ANA auction. The PCGS Price Guide does not list a value for the CAMEO designation, but in non-CAM its listed at $5,750. We think today, with the strength of the pattern market (the Simpson coin, PCGS PR65 (non CAM) sold for $4,800 in February 2021). Bid accordingly. Cert. Number 37286400 PCGS # 759215
