FROM THE M & S PETTY COLLECTION Clearly this high end MS64+ is not only well ensconced in the Condition Census for the issue, it is also very visually alluring! We sold this beautiful borderline GEM back in September 2019, saying it would delight and excite any Seated dollar collector, and surly it did, finding its way into this WORLD CLASS collection! We further described it as: "Thick and satiny mint frost glints and glimmers on both sides in the fields with an almost opal-like sheen. Snowy-white surfaces mingle with traces of a dappled golden tone that clings to the recesses of some of the design elements, especially out toward the peripheries. Nicely struck for the date with just some minor bluntness of strike seen in the central devices, but better than typically seen. A strong glass will reveal some minor "ticks and giggles" none of which have any impact on the exceptional visual allure or technical quality of this near GEM Seated dollar." Ex Legend Rare Coin Auctions' Regency Auction 34, September 2019, lot 341. PCGS 6, NGC 10, CAC 2. This is the only MS64+ and there are only four graded finer. This coin realized $19,388 in September 2019. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $22,500. Just four have ever graded higher, and the last PCGS/CAC MS65 sold in October 2014 for $76,375 and would likely cost close to six figures today should it appear. This borderline GEM is worthy of another amazing collection! Good luck. Cert. Number 37102771 PCGS # 6962
