The Regency Auction 38

详细说明: While the mint had been producing Proof singles and sets for years for VIP clients and dignitaries, in 1858, they began producing them for the public. Only 300 Proofs were struck, and this one ranks among the prettiest we have seen. Extremely reflective mirrored fields beam all over with a vivid glassiness and flash. Sharply struck up, the devices are struck with pin-point precision. A melange of deeper blue and apricot-gold mingles with teal and rose accents. The surfaces are clean and smooth and it takes a very strong glass to find any lines in the reverse fields. These are perfectly appropriate for the assigned grade and do not impact the stunning eye appeal of this VERY CHOICE example. Only 300 Proofs were struck. PCGS 8, NGC 12. The most recent to sell realized $15,863 in the March 2017 sale of the Blue Moon Collection. This coin has a lot more flash, color, and pizzazz! The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $22,000. There are eight coins graded finer, the most recent of which sold in the 2020 FUN Auction for $44,400 (that was the first time since 2005 that a PCGS PR65 had sold before). Worthy of a great set of Seated Liberty dollars. Cert. Number 38971272 PCGS # 7001.00
