The Regency Auction 49

详细说明: An amazing GEM Large cent that is totally unspoiled and natural. This coin was in the amazing Husak sale back in June 2008. We sit and wonder in full amazement how this coin has survived for 206 years so perfect. The surfaces are pristine and do emit a strong luster. Here is how it was described at the 2008 auction: "Lustrous light brown and olive with some lighter tan that represents faded mint red. Slightly deeper brown on the reverse with traces of orange mint color. Nicely detailed for the variety with complete, narrow borders on both sides.". We want to clarify, nicely detailed is really FULLY STRUCK! The eye appeal is tremendous! This coin sold for $29,900.00 at the sale. We totally disagree with the PCGS pops as we have not seen any others offered nor can we find any auction records. PCGS 7, NGC 1. There is only a single BN graded higher (66) by PCGS. The current Collectors Universe Value is $37,500. The pedigree of this coin ranks among the best of the best: Howard R. Newcomb; Dr. James O. Sloss; R.E. Naftzger, Jr.; Abe Kosoff (10/1959), lot 82, $600; Emanuel Taylor (10/1960); R.E. Naftzger, Jr. (New Netherlands, 11/1973), lot 566, $1,800; Douglas Kaselitz; Gordon J. Wrubel; Myles Z.

Time will continue to create value on a rarity like this! Cert. Number 13473827 PCGS # 1482
