Lot Description

A totally original and high end SUPERB GEM tied for second FINEST graded by PCGS in the Full Band designation. A popular and scarce variety, which is extremely rare in this lofty state of preservation. Clearly this lustrous beauty sat for ages in an old collector envelope, you can see the kraft paper's texture imprinted in the splendid patination. Rose-gold and slate-blue toning is accented by brilliant, satiny mint luster. The lustrous surfaces are without flaws and the strike is full. Every detail is crisply rendered from a forceful blow from the dies. The eye appeal is exceptional! PCGS 41, NGC 4, CAC 12. There are 4 in MS67+ FB and only one has ever sold in auction, which realized $12,000 in the 2019 FUN auction. Keep in mind that we just sold a PCGS MS68 FB CAC for $25,850 in our March 2019 Regency Auction. What a great coin for the advanced collector! Cert. Number 37301249 PCGS # 005063
