- Towering quality for the connoisseur as this coin has it all: fabulous quality, deep mirror prooflike reflectivity and finest known status. This glorious white coin is a full grade point above any other PCGS example of this date. The frost on Miss Liberty’s head is intact with only slight disturbances present, while the delicate mirror fields are virtually perfect in preservation. DMPLs are scarce of this date and Mint, and seldom found at the gem grade level. MS66 pieces are downright elusive and consistently sell for over $7,000.00. So here is the sole and finest MS67 DMPL and if you love quality coins and finest knowns, then here is a “must have” piece that is not to be missed. The DMPL coins were struck when the dies were absolutely the freshest and offered the most die polish in the fields. One can almost imagine that this was one of the first 100 or so coins struck with a brand new pair of dies at the Carson City Mint. All dies were made at the Philadelphia Mint and shipped to the various branch mints for coinage. Clearly this elegant coin was one of the first struck, as the dies show every minute nuance precisely as they were when they left the Philadelphia Mint for their long journey west to Carson City. Notice the tiny traces of frost which extend into the mirror fields in certain devices like the date and the final star on the right. These frosty areas are normally polished, but here offer a glimpse into the die manufacturing process, and these telltale frost traces are unique to each die. Needless to say, this particular coin offers hours of enjoyment for any numismatist! PCGS 1, NGC 2. The last auction price for this coin is $63,250.00 (7/08) but that’s over seven years ago. What it brings today remains to be seen. Good luck! This coin is being sold with no reserve. Certification Number 6862374 PCGS # 97127
