1827 Sq. Base 2 - O.141 R.3 PCGS AU 58 CAC
Ex Keith Davignon. This charming 1827 was part of the Davignon consignment to Mail Bid Sale #39, August 2014. Lot 47 sold for $1,649 and was described as follows: Halos of iridescent toning inveigle our senses, drawing us to closer examination. Luster crosses the fields with the same intensity it displays between stars, a sure sign that the coin failed in its aspiration to enter commerce. I find no blemishes. Whatever friction PCGS identified seems ephemeral. On another day this coin might have garnered an UNC designation. From Coin Rarities Online during the 2010 Boston ANA. Est. $1,250 to $1,550.
