1831 -  O.108 R.1 PCGS AU 58 CAC


Ex Charlton E. “Swampy” Meyer and Tim Osborne   Booming luster adorns the untoned surfaces.  Faint friction, if any, is confined to the cheek.  The central devices are fully struck save for Liberty’s lowest drapery lines.  Last offered in August 2021 as part of Tim Osborne’s awe-inspiring collection.  (MB 52, lot 45) The PCGS label includes the Meyer provenance.  My personal notes reveal Swampy’s source: Superior Galleries’ May 1995 sale, lot 2790.  Tim acquired the coin from Harry Laibstain at the January 2009 FUN Show.  A great coin with a distinguished provenance for date, die variety and registry set collectors.  Estimate: $1,000 to $1,200.
