Lot Description

THE BOYLSTON COLLECTION TOP POP and one of only 2 examples to merit the coveted CAC sticker. Silvery mint luster gleams from beneath pretty heather, celery and ice blue toning. Deep mint frost caresses both the fields and the devices. Not a mark on the fields to be found even with powerful magnification. WOW, what an incredible example of this popular issue. Nearly 2 million pieces were struck in an effort to comply with the provisions of the Species Redemption Act of 1875. WB-15, Rarity-2. Type 2, Medium CC. PCGS 8, NGC 5, CAC 2. Just four coins grade higher. PCGS Price Guide is $8,500. A non CAC piece sold for $6,600 in November 2017. An example that merits placement in a top shelf collection and is sure to garner a strong price. Best of luck on this beauty! Cert. Number 81340169 PCGS # 6356.00
