THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />

LOT 231<br />

$1 1881-O PCGS MS66+ CAC<br />

Tied for FINEST graded! This coin has such an original<br />

look, it will delight any collector that wants their coins to<br />

have character!<br />

Extremely clean surfaces show off a strong, blazing mint<br />

luster that rolls from all over. The boldly struck devices<br />

are quite crisp for an O-mint, with just the slightest touch<br />

of weakness in the hair curls above Liberty’s ear and<br />

eagle’s breast feathers; everything else is fully and crisply<br />

struck up and fully rendered. The surfaces are especially<br />

clean and free of any marks, and the only lines are mint<br />

made die striations on the reverse. A dusting of toning on<br />

the obverse and reverse, the most eye catching of which<br />

is a tab of rainbow over DOLLAR.<br />

PCGS 51, NGC 8, CAC 7. There are only MS66+ graded<br />

at PCGS as FINEST for the date. The only one to have<br />

ever sold in auction is the Coronet Collection coin that we<br />

sold for $39,950 in our June 2015 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>. This<br />

coin has a totally different look, that coin having been<br />

blast white. The current PCGS value is listed at $35,000.<br />

This lightly toned example will entice strong bidding<br />

from collectors looking for the FINEST Morgans graded!<br />

PCGS# 7128 | ESTIMATE: $28,500+<br />
