详细说明: DUPLICATES FROM THE BLACKCAT COLLECTION This cataloger LOVES this design, it is a favorite of the entire Pattern series! James Longacre's Indian Princess head facing left. Reverse shows an ornately framed Union shield with a large Roman numeral V in the center, IN GOD WE TRUST above. Struck in aluminum with a plain edge. A Rarity-5 Pattern, which suggests 31-75 minted. Cameo examples of this type are RARE! For an example in aluminum, this coin has a wonderful, deep reflection that contrasts against the frosty and crisply struck devices. Longacre's design is elegant and simple, yet offers great detail. Vibrant silvery surfaces are devoid of any haze or corrosion that usually plague aluminum planchets, and we note only a few tiny ticks for accuracy, none that detract from the eye appeal. Ex Stack's Bowers, November 2012, lot 5215 (as NGC PR64 CAMEO); Steven Cook Collection; Legend Rare Coin Auctions' Regency Auction 27, July 2018, lot 536; Black Cat Collection. PCGS 3, NGC 3, CAC 4. This is the ONLY PCGS example to ever sell in auction, and realized $4,935 in July 2018. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $5,750. Just three are graded finer in the Cameo designation at PCGS, the most recent selling in our April 2022 Regency Auction for $8,519. Worthy of a very strong bid from the pattern specialist or beginner looking to own a great coin! Cert. Number 35116907 PCGS # 860771
