1826 -  O.112 R.4+ PCGS AU 58 CAC

Steel grey with virtually no signs of friction.  Cartwheel luster that lacks the intensity we often see in our “58’s.”  The Prouty AU 58 brought $2,572 in 2013 (MB 37, lot 45).  This one is not as snazzy but carries a coveted CAC sticker.  Most from this die pair have a filled N in UNITED.  Al Overton suspected the existence of the “prime” die state but never encountered one.  From the collection of Dr. Charles Link.  Est. $1,000 to $1,500.
