1901-O 10C MS (PCGS#4825)

The Regency Auction XXI May 2017

详细说明: Like most Barber dimes, the 01-O saw a fairly generous mintage of 5,620,000, but they were all put into circulation where they would remain. Today, precious few survive in mint state grades and looking at the grading service population reports, the majority of those that are in mint state are clustered in the MS63-64 range. In gem grades, the 01-O is indeed quite scarce. The presently offered beauty displays a vibrant satin sheen and light golden-champagne-pearl hues that accentuate the sharply struck devices. PCGS 7, NGC 5, CAC 5. Only two coins are graded finer, one in 66+ and one in MS67. In the recent market, Barber coinage has taken an unfair thrashing in value, the last 1901-O in PCGS MS66 CAC was the Lily-Nicole coin, and sold for $1,998 in December 2015 (that very same coin sold for $3,700 just 7 months earlier). Only a few years ago, these were selling for $4,000+ and the current CU value is still listed at $4,350. The two coins graded higher have yet to appear at auction, and are likely in tight hands. This is a great opportunity for the Registry set collector. PCGS # 4825 Cert. Number 16471215 PCGS # 4825
