From MB 50, lot 93 at $798.  Wow!  I think there is a misprint on the label.  55?  This coin is everyone’s 58 – and a nice one at that.  The blinding luster is undisturbed in the fields.  The strike is magnificent.  I note a trace of friction on the cheek, none on the reverse.  The date is common.  The eye appeal is not.  I cannot imagine another sale that has featured so many top notch, dare I say undergraded, AU 55s.  

Estimate: $600 to $800
