THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 18<br />
1C 1889 PCGS MS66 RD CAC<br />
Brilliant, glowing coppery lustrous surfaces glow<br />
throughout this high grade GEM. Tied for finest graded<br />
at PCGS. The devices are sharply struck that stand<br />
out with crisp definition in the Indian’s headdress<br />
and the leaves in the reverse wreath. There are a few<br />
micro-flecks that can only be seen with a powerful glass.<br />
Rosy-red with salmon pink overtones, this coin has a<br />
great, lustrous look, worthy of its lofty grade.<br />
PCGS 16, NGC 1, CAC 5. The last one to sell was CAC<br />
approved and sold for $6,756 in March 2017 and one<br />
sold prior to that in September 2016 for $8,225. The<br />
current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $8,500. Tied for FINEST graded, this coin will fit nicely in any high ranking set of Indian<br />
Head cents!<br />
LOT 19<br />
1C 1892 PCGS MS66 RD CAC<br />
We look at this coin with total amazement as to how it has<br />
survived 126 years in such a pristine condition. Plus, it enjoys<br />
its original GEM Mint red color. Exceedingly clean surfaces just<br />
amaze us. Even using a strong glass there are no imperfections<br />
anywhere. The surfaces also have a light satiny texture. There<br />
is a softer yet glowing type of luster. Miss Liberty and all of the<br />
details are exceptionally well struck. This coin has really great<br />
eye appeal!<br />
PCGS# 2174 | ESTIMATE: $6,000+<br />
PCGS 19, NGC 4, CAC 5. The last 1892 MS66 RD to sell was<br />
NOT CAC and it brought $3,000. The current Collector’s Universe Value is $3,750. We can see strong bidding for this lovely GEM<br />
RED Mint State Indian Cent.<br />
PCGS# 2183 | ESTIMATE: $3,000+<br />
LOT 20<br />
1C 1894 PCGS MS66+ RD CAC<br />
WOW! Did we say WOW? We could not believe our<br />
eyes when we first saw this coin. No joke, this coin<br />
looks as fresh as if it just came off the dies. Of course<br />
it is SUPER HIGH END and well worthy of its lofty<br />
designation. Remarkable surfaces are just that. We<br />
looked over this coin hard and there really are NO flaws<br />
or even microscopic problems. The luster is incredibly<br />
bold! We have never seen any pre-1895 as lustrous.<br />
Both sides are an incredible SUPERB GEM Mint Red<br />
color. What is more amazing, is how stone bold original<br />
everything . There is a super slight hint of some toning<br />
dots-really visible with a glass only. The strike is full<br />
and you do not need a glass to see all the Indians feathers. You do NOT need a glass to see the fullness of all the details. The eye<br />
appeal is beyond amazing!<br />
PCGS 40, NGC 12, CAC 12. PCGS has graded 7 in MS66+ RD and just one coin higher. We cannot find any auction records for a 66+<br />
RD, though there is a Collector’s Universe value of $11,500. Note that while PCGS has graded a single coin finer, this coin is tied with<br />
the High Desert, Perfection 1, and Wright Collections, all ranking at the top of the PCGS CoinFacts census! Adding this SUPERB coin<br />
to your set puts you in very distinguished company indeed!<br />
