Lot Number 65

A high R.5 in your cataloguer’s estimation.  I know of a single uncirculated example, Stu Witham’s coin, graded PCGS MS 62.  It brought $6,325 at Heritage’s 2010 ANA auction.  This Condition Census piece turned up the following year and makes its first appearance at auction.  The strike is exceptional for the issue.  The satiny surfaces are bathed in even, auburn toning.  No marks deserve mention.  A toning spot in the field, between the eagle’s neck and top left wing, will serve as a marker for future generations.  Three or four choice AU’s are known.  I doubt that the total population exceeds 45 coins.  If you have chased scarce and rare die marriages for any time at all you know the significance of this opportunity.  Acquired privately from David Kahn.  The consignor’s insert details the acquisition.  Est. $4,000 to $5,000.
