THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 264<br />
$1 1892 PCGS PR65+ CAM<br />
CAC<br />
A premium quality GEM Proof<br />
1892 Morgan dollar. This is<br />
a highly reflective and ultra<br />
flashy with a blinding mirrored<br />
finish to the fields. Smooth,<br />
icy mirrored fields boast<br />
the epitome of quicksilver<br />
brilliance. They are deep and<br />
beaming offering a strong<br />
contrast to the frosted struck<br />
devices. The eye appeal<br />
is quite nice, with just the<br />
slightest hint of clear gold that<br />
frames both sides.<br />
PCGS 9, NGC 17, CAC 6. There are two PCGS PR65+ CAM graded, neither has ever sold in auction. The last PCGS/CAC<br />
PR65 CAM sold in January 2013 for $11,750 and no PCGS PR66 CAM CAC ever sold in auction. The current PCGS value is<br />
listed at $7,500 and we think this one could sell in excess of that amount.<br />
PCGS# 87327 | ESTIMATE: $6,750+<br />
LOT 265<br />
$1 1902 PCGS PR65 CAC<br />
Here is a wonderfully eye<br />
appealing GEM 1902 dollar.<br />
Starting in 1902 the mint<br />
changed the way Proof dies were<br />
prepared, and rather than having<br />
a frosty devices and highly<br />
polished mirrored fields, the<br />
entire surface of the dies were<br />
polished, leaving every part of<br />
the design reflective.<br />
This stunning PR65 has a great<br />
look! The fields are richly<br />
mirrored and the devices are<br />
sharply struck up. There are a<br />
couple of tiny toning dots on the<br />
reverse which will identify it for posterity.<br />
Only 777 Proofs were struck. PCGS 27, NGC 45, CAC 8. The most recent PCGS/CAC PR65 to sell in auction realized $6,900 in<br />
October 2011. This coin ahs been off the market since 2012. This impressive GEM will delight any Proof Morgan collector, keep in mind<br />
these are not as common as you might think. The current Collector’s Universe value is $5,750. Rare any finer.<br />
