Truly a beautifully preserved and lustrous GEM that is the epitome of quality. A delicate pinkish-gold hue comes out vividly in the light. While there is a touch of minor striking weakness on the centers, the strike is bold otherwise and the eye appeal is exceptional. Conditionally RARE, the present GEM has a better than normally seen strike and high end allure. PCGS 67, NGC 6, CAC 25. There must have been a small hoard that came out, perhaps two rolls where the majority of the coins graded MS65 and MS66. The most recent example brought $3,000 in September 2019. This coin has been off the market for over 14 years, selling for $3,910 in May 2005. Just five coins are graded higher, two MS66+ CAC examples have sold in auction, both bringing $8,519, the most recent in our March 2019 Regency Auction. Worthy of a very strong bid from the specialist collector. Good luck! Cert. Number 50068899 PCGS # 003964
