The Regency Auction 33

详细说明: One of the most identifiable early half cent varieties, with the errant 1 punched well above its proper location. Deep brown-mahogany surfaces show some ebony accents, although the glossy luster generates enough life to the fields and devices to keep them from looking dark. Sharply struck from a rusted state of the dies, there are raised areas where the dies pitted before striking. The eye appeal is excellent. PCGS 3, NGC 3, CAC 2. This coin was sold in our July 2018 Regency Auction for $13,513, but the collector that bought it has changed directions. The current Collector's Universe value is $11,000. While somewhat common in lower grade, this variety is VERY RARE in this or finer grades. Good luck to all the EAC collectors who will vie for this popular issue! Cert. Number 25398010 PCGS # 1042.00
