Ex Gehring Prouty. Intense luster. Friction confined to the highest points. Its last auction appearance was in May 1996, MB 17, lot 16. Gehring Prouty was the high bidder. It returned to my inventory in August 2000 and again in September 2017, where Dick was the happy buyer. The coin is a “lock” to grade AU 55, perhaps AU 58, if submitted to PCGS today. The late die state features an assortment of die breaks and carries a suggested rarity rating of R.5. Brilliant, with a thin halo of gold toning. Terrific eye-appeal! Estimate: $2,500 to $3,000.
