1899-O $1 Micro O MS (PCGS#87260)

The Regency Auction 26

详细说明: FROM THE P.F.M. COLLECTION. A very popular variety in essentially GEM quality! VAM-4, considered one of the "Top 100" varieties. The tiny "O" mintmark is thought to have been originally used on quarter dies, and somehow a few dies were prepared with this feature. The presently offered example is among the FINEST known, not just for VAM 4, but all Micro Os. Of the three VAMs for the variety, VAM 4 is the rarest. Very attractive and well struck, this coin has a bold, frosty mint bloom with just a touch of light gold at the peripheries. Under close examination with a strong glass, we do note a few tiny grazes, but these are totally acceptable for the assigned grade. PCGS 8, NGC 2, CAC 5. This is one of four MS64+s graded and there are only three finer at PCGS. The P.F.M. collector purchased this gem for $29,375 in June 2016. Prior to that selling, a PCGS MS64 (no + or CAC) sold for $49,938 in the 2014 FUN auction. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $27,000 but clearly this should sell for more than that. An opportunity of the utmost importance for the advanced Morgan dollar collector, no doubt it should see very strong bidding when it is called to the auction block! Cert. Number 25607091 PCGS # 87260
