Lot Description

THE BOYLSTON COLLECTION BLACK and WHITE contrast is what you find with this choice GEM! Dazzling white fields are an enhancement to crisply struck, heavily frosted devices. A teensy lint mark in the right obverse field is noted under strong magnification. Possibly dipped at one time, but only mentioned for the sake of accuracy. PCGS 12; NGC 6. Just 500 Proofs were struck. PCGS Price Guide Value is $5,500. An NGC example traded in June 2015 for $4,465 and prices and demand have done nothing but climb since that time. In fact, there is a void in the marketplace for black and white cameo Seated halves. Expect aggressive bidding when this coin crosses the block. Cert. Number 1840615-006 PCGS # 86419.00
