The Regency Auction 50

详细说明: FROM THE NAPLES COLLECTION, PART II A truly memorable early die state 1805 BD-1. The early die state shows no clashing or die cracks on either obverse or reverse. This die marriage, rated as Rarity-3+ in the Bass-Dannreuther reference is the most available of the year, but the estimated survival is low, with 175-225 thought to exist in all grades. This CHOICE Mint State example has a fantastic look. Even orange-tinged golden surfaces are suffused with a sublime, nearly Prooflike reflective luster that really flashes when rotated in a light. The central devices are sharply impressed with bold crisp definition, while the peripheral devices show just some very minor weakness, relegated mostly to the stars. There are some mint made adjustment marks that blend in with Liberty's hair curls and do not detract from the outstanding eye appeal of this early $5. Ex Oliver Collection, Heritage, August 2011, lot 7520. PCGS 58, NGC 41, CAC 12. There are three graded MS62+ at PCGS. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $21,000 and the last PCGS/CAC MS62 (no CAC MS62+ has ever sold in auction) realized $20,400 in April 2019. This is a fantastic coin for a wonderful gold type set or date set of early fives. We anticipate very strong bidding when this lovely coin crosses the block. Cert. Number 3941658 PCGS # 8088
