详细说明

Clearly this high end MS64+ is not only well ensconced in the Condition Census for the issue, but 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 surely it did. 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." PCGS 5, NGC 10, CAC 2. This is the only MS64+ and there are only four graded finer by PCGS. This coin realized $19,388 in September 2019. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $22,500. Next step up brought $76,375 and would likely cost close to six figures today should it appear. This borderline GEM is worthy of any amazing choice/GEM collection! Cert. Number 37102771 PCGS # 6962
