1813 - O.110 R.3 PCGS MS 62
Heavy clash marks and drawn stars come with the territory on this noteworthy die pair. Golden toning (kraft envelope?), bold luster, mark-free surfaces and exceptional eye-appeal would suit an MS 63 designation. The coin comes with an impressive provenance. Keith Davignon purchased it in January 2011 at Heritage’s sale of Troy Nelson’s (“Allgood”) Collection. (Lot 3626 @ $3,737.) Some years later Dr. Charles Link persuaded Keith to part with it. Dr. Link had the coin reholdered to include the O.110 attribution and memorialize its provenance. Scorzafava acquired it directly from Dr. Link. Estimate: $3,250 to $4,000
