THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 394<br />
50C 1935-S BOONE. PCGS MS67 CAC<br />
This is a beautifully toned SUPERB GEM Boone. Rings of rich<br />
violet, crimson, royal blue, and deep amber-gold ring around<br />
frosty silver central reverse devices, while the obverse has just a<br />
touch of iridescent silver and touches of gold at the rim. The eye<br />
appeal is superb, you will be hard pressed to find another with a<br />
look like this!<br />
PCGS 40, NGC 32, CAC 20. The last PCGS/CAC example<br />
realized $2,<strong>29</strong>1 in our May 2017 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>. This coin’s<br />
eye appeal is stronger and should realize a stronger price. The<br />
current PCGS value does not take into account this coin’s<br />
stunning looks!<br />
PCGS# 9260 | ESTIMATE: $1,500+<br />
LOT 395<br />
50C 1937 BOONE. PCGS MS67+ CAC<br />
Bested by only three coins, this SUPERB GEM ranks among<br />
the very FINEST known examples, and even a cursory look will<br />
prove that! The surfaces are gloriously smooth, and brilliantly<br />
lustrous. The superb luster glows in the fields under a dusting<br />
of icy blue, steely olive, and pale gold that is richer towards the<br />
rims. The devices are sharply struck and the reverse is especially<br />
crisp. The eye appeal is simply stunning, and cannot be beat!<br />
PCGS 136, NGC 55, CAC 54. PCGS has graded only 18 in<br />
MS67+ and the most recent CAC-approved example realized<br />
$3,120 in April 2018. Prior to that, the only ones to sell in auction<br />
were back in 2016. Only three examples, all MS68 are graded<br />
finer, and the most recent 68 sold for $9,106 in 2014. A real prize<br />
for any discerning commem collector demanding the best.<br />
PCGS# 9270 | ESTIMATE: $1,500+<br />
LOT 396<br />
50C 1937 BOONE. PCGS MS67+ CAC<br />
This glorious SUPERB GEM is tied for second finest graded at<br />
PCGS and it is truly a very high end example of the type.<br />
A screaming luster on the obverse beams from all throughout the<br />
fields, giving the portrait of Daniel Boone, with its bold frosted<br />
look, a halo of amber-gold and icy-silver blue. The reverse has a<br />
nice frosty, pearly silver look. This coin really is one or two tiny<br />
ticks away from an even higher grade.<br />
PCGS 137, NGC 56, CAC 54. There are 19 graded MS67+<br />
at PCGS and only three coins finer. The most recent example<br />
realized $3,120 in April 2018. If you could find a 68--and that is a<br />
big if--it would cost $10,000 or more!<br />
LOT 397<br />
50C 1937-S BOONE. PCGS MS67 CAC<br />
A very cool Boone half dollar, with a distinctive, semi-prooflike<br />
flash in the fields. Icy-lustrous fields show off a steely-blue and<br />
clear gold toning on both sides. Sharply struck up, this SUPERB<br />
GEM has a great look that will delight any serious collector.<br />
PCGS 45, NGC 26, CAC 18. EXTREMELY RARE any finer, with<br />
just eight such coins graded at PCGS. The last PCGS MS67 CAC<br />
to sell brought $1,440 in the 2018 FUN auction. This coin’s great<br />
look will make it bring around the current CU value of $1,500.<br />
PCGS# 9272 | ESTIMATE: $1,100+<br />
PCGS# 9270 | ESTIMATE: $2,200+<br />
