Blinding luster!  This untoned beauty was Don Frederick’s set piece for many years.  It brought $1,725 when Heritage offered his collection at the Central States show in April 2010.  It appeared again in November 2023.  Heritage relegated it to its Internet session.  It still brought $2,160, a testament to its quality and the rarity of this die pair.  Advanced collectors will relish the opportunity to acquire this important coin.  

Estimate: $2,000 to $2,500
