The Regency Auction 51

详细说明: FROM THE GLORIOUS PATTERN COLLECTION. A splendid borderline SUPERB Metric Dollar Pattern! William Barber's head of Liberty wearing a cap and crown of wheat, cotton, and corn with a band inscribed LIBERTY. E PLURIBUS UNUM, stars, and date surround. Reverse shows the GOLOID composition, of gold, silver, copper, and weight. Struck in copper with a reeded edge, this is a challenging Rarity-6+ issue that is closely related to the 1879/1880 Stella and Quintuple Stella issues. A fabulous GEM! Icy reflective mirrors are bold, flashy and vivid. The surfaces are incredibly smooth, nearly pristine, with a gorgeous palette of red and violet patina. The eye appeal is amazing. Ex Heritage, April 2013, lot 5359. PCGS 5, NGC 2, CAC 3. This GEM brought $8,813 nearly a decade ago. More recently an NGC/CAC PR66 RB sold for $11,750 in April 2017. The current PCGS Price Guide is $11,000 and as one of the FINEST KNOWN examples, this is a SUPERB survivor; just the Simpson coin PCGS PR66+ RD and the Newman NGC PR67 RD CAC are finer. This is an important opportunity for the advanced collector. Cert. Number 26488250 PCGS # 72037
