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

LOT 372<br />

$20 1898-S PCGS MS64 CAC<br />

A lovely, fresh, borderline GEM Liberty $20. High end for the<br />

assigned grade, with a bold, frosty luster and very pleasing<br />

surfaces. Just a few bag marks are noted, which account for the<br />

grade, none of which affect the eye appeal overall.<br />

PCGS 1490, NGC 1176, CAC 187. The current CU value is listed<br />

at $2,300 and the most recent PCGS/CAC example to sell in<br />

auction brought $2,640 in the recent ANA auction. Very scarce<br />

in GEM, this coin will make a nice addition to any collection of<br />

gold coins.<br />

PCGS# 9034 | ESTIMATE: $2,200+<br />

LOT 373<br />

$20 1900 PCGS MS65 CAC<br />

Superb surfaces are semi satiny and are surprisingly clean<br />

overall. There are a few light frost breaks and a small scuff/<br />

frost break you can only see using a strong glass. A strong<br />

glowing luster shows off totally original yellow/pale greenish<br />

gold colors. There are NO spots or discolorations-save for a<br />

tiny speck of mint grease on the obverse. Miss Liberty and the<br />

details are frosty and are well struck. We grade the reverse an<br />

easy MS65+. The eye appeal is super!<br />

PCGS 357, NGC 345, CAC 36. The last PCGS CAC sold in<br />

auction brought $4,080 in the 2018 ANA auction; prior to that,<br />

there has not been one sold in auction since March 2015 for<br />

$5,170. There is no big premium for this date over the 1904,<br />

which has a much bigger population in GEM. Gold bugs know<br />

the timing is right to buy coins like these.<br />
