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

LOT 15<br />

1C 1856 FLYING<br />

EAGLE. PCGS<br />

PR64 CAC<br />

We are thrilled to<br />

have this high end<br />

and beautifully<br />

toned example<br />

of the first small<br />

cent struck by the<br />

US mint.<br />

Exquisite surfaces<br />

are generally<br />

clean and smooth<br />

overall. Nice<br />

reflective mirrors<br />

beam from all<br />

over, giving life<br />

to the wonderful<br />

swirling colors. Both sides have a even coating of totally original tan, pale golden brown,pale blue, violet, and olive that blend in a<br />

very eye appealing way over the smooth mirrored surfaces. Every detail is pinpoint sharp in strike and boldly stands out. The eye<br />

appeal really is exceptional! You will likely never see another one that has such a wonderfully colorful look!<br />

PCGS 218, NGC 122, CAC 54. The last PCGS CAC piece to sell in auction brought $21,735 in a February 2018 auction event. The<br />

current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $20,500. Since this piece offered here is so nice, we expect it to bring a little more.<br />

PCGS# 2037 | ESTIMATE: $17,500+<br />

LOT 16<br />

1C 1871 PCGS MS65 RB CAC<br />

A vibrant swirling luster rolls with a strong brilliance on both<br />

sides. The color is a golden-brown with ample original red<br />

lustrous tones. Sharply struck design elements stand out against<br />

the smooth surfaces. The eye appeal is very high end and a<br />

delightful GEM for any specialist collector.<br />

PCGS 79, NGC 85, CAC 19. The current PCGS Price Guide<br />

value is listed at $2,500 and that is what the last example<br />

hammered for in our June 2017 Premier Session. A great looking<br />

coin like this will see spirited bidding for sure.<br />

PCGS# 2101 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+<br />

LOT 17<br />

1C 1873 OPEN 3. PCGS MS65 RB CAC<br />

Just slightly mellowing from a blazing original red, the surfaces<br />

have an amazing mint bloom that glows around the reliefs.<br />

Sharply impressed from a deep blow from the dies, the details are<br />

nice and crisp. There is a minor mark hidden on the obverse, not<br />

noticeable to the naked eye. Very pleasing eye appeal overall with<br />

a great GEM look.<br />

PCGS 87, NGC 28, CAC 23. The most recent PCGS/CAC<br />

example to sell in auction brought $1,170 in July 2018 and in<br />

the ANA auction a NON-CAC coin sold for $1,560. The current<br />

PCGS value is listed at $1,550. The quality of the present coin<br />

will entice lots of bidding for sure.<br />

PCGS# 2107 | ESTIMATE: $1,100+<br />
