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

LOT 390<br />

50C 1936 ALBANY. PCGS MS67+ CAC<br />

What can we say about this Albany, other than it is SUPERB!<br />

With only three coins finer, this beautiful coin ranks among<br />

the VERY FINEST examples available to collectors. Sharply<br />

struck throughout, the devices are crisp and the satiny luster is<br />

flawlessly drenched on both sides.<br />

PCGS 216, NGC 158, CAC 89. There are only 23 graded MS67+<br />

at PCGS. The range of APRs is wide for PCGS/CAC MS67+s, the<br />

most recent selling for $1,440 in the 2018 ANA auction; one sold for<br />

$2,585 in the 2017 FUN auction. The current Collector’s Universe<br />

value is listed at $1,650 and this one, with its amazing looks can<br />

easily surpass that level. Keep in mind that a 68 will cost $20,000+!<br />

PCGS# 9227 | ESTIMATE: $1,400+<br />

LOT 391<br />

50C 1937 ANTIETAM. PCGS MS67 CAC<br />

This is a great looking Antietam! Awash in iridescent toning on<br />

both sides, more so on the obverse than reverse, the eye appeal<br />

is awesome! Highly lustrous and well struck, this coin will<br />

delight any collector of classic commems.<br />

PCGS 368, NGC 183, CAC 140. The most recent example to<br />

sell in auction realized $3,600 in June 2018 and in the same<br />

auction one brought $1,140. An NGC/CAC sold for $4,920 in<br />

April 2018. CU obviously has not taken into account the eye<br />

appeal, and is listed at only $1,150. This SUPERB GEM will<br />

bring fierce bidding for sure!<br />

PCGS# 92<strong>29</strong> | ESTIMATE: $1,000+<br />

LOT 392<br />

50C 1937 ANTIETAM. PCGS MS67+ CAC<br />

Of all the commemorative issues, those that relate to the Civil<br />

War are among the most popular. While the designs of many<br />

commems are rather plain and in lower relief, the conjoined<br />

heads of General Lee and General McClellan and the Burnside<br />

Bridge and Antietam Creek are struck in a relief that is higher<br />

and they stand out. This beautifully toned example shows nothing<br />

but the most insignificant tick or two, which are all only visible<br />

with a strong glass. Both sides have a rich, totally original toning<br />

imparted from long term strorage in the original holder, and the<br />

luster booms with an amazing brilliance through the color.<br />

PCGS 400, NGC 199, CAC 140. There are 32 graded MS67+<br />

and only 24 finer. The most recent PCGS/CAC example brought<br />

a very strong $9,000 in the 2018 CSNS auction. A similar toned<br />

coin sold in the 2016 ANA auction for $3,<strong>29</strong>0. This one will see<br />

fierce bidding for sure, from any commem collector looking for a<br />

SUPERB TONED GEM!<br />

LOT 393<br />

50C 1936-S BAY BRIDGE. PCGS MS67 CAC<br />

SUPERB in every respect! A beautifully toned, well struck,<br />

and lustrous Bay Bridge. The surfaces are flawless and totally<br />

original with a very high end look! One of the more popular<br />

issues thanks to a great reverse design.<br />

PCGS 205, NGC 89, CAC 102. The most recent PCGS MS67<br />

CAC examples sold in the April 2018 CSNS auction, realizing<br />

$1,560, $2,160, and $2,400 each. We sold one in our July 2017<br />

<strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong> for $1,704. This one will see very fierce<br />

bidding when it crosses the block.<br />

PCGS# 9254 | ESTIMATE: $1,500+<br />

PCGS# 92<strong>29</strong> | ESTIMATE: $2,500+<br />
