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

LOT 435<br />

50C 1923-S MONROE. PCGS MS66<br />

A true GEM Monroe half. This is a commemorative that often<br />

is highly lacking in terms of quality and eye appeal. This<br />

one is highly eye appealing with a satin luster and delicate,<br />

delightful pastel toning. As you rotate the surfaces in a light,<br />

peach-orange, aqua-blue, and olive-gold accent the smooth,<br />

problem free surfaces. The strike is better than usually seen on<br />

this notoriously FLAT type. This one is an exception with full<br />

detail on the reverse.<br />

PCGS 108, NGC 60. The current PCGS value is listed at $2,000<br />

and there is a wide range of prices realized in the last two<br />

years, ranging from $1,080 to $2,585; the most recent selling<br />

for $1,920 in April 2018. A beauty like this will realize a strong<br />

price for sure, this is a great coin for the Commemorative<br />

collector. VERY RARE finer!<br />

PCGS# 9333 | ESTIMATE: $1,200+<br />

LOT 436<br />

50C 1938 NEW ROCHELLE. PCGS MS67+<br />

A beautiful TAB toned SUPERB GEM. The original holder<br />

imparted magenta, gold, orange, and sea-green tone about the<br />

peripheries on on the obverse, while the reverse is blanketed<br />

by a dusting of sky blue and clear gold. The central obverse is<br />

a brilliant silver that gleams with a strong brilliance. The eye<br />

appeal is excellent and we are not sure why CAC did not bean it.<br />

PCGS 257, NGC 86. PCGS has graded 47 in 67+, which must<br />

represent much duplication of submissions. This impeccable<br />

SUPERB GEM realized $2,400 when it sold in April 2018.<br />

The current PCGS price is listed at $2,750. While there are 7<br />

coins graded numerically higher at PCGS, NONE have ever<br />

sold in auction. This is a wonderfully original coin worthy of a<br />

premium bid and inclusion in a great commem set.!<br />

PCGS# 9335 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+<br />

LOT 437<br />

50C 1938 NEW ROCHELLE. PCGS<br />

SP66+ CAC<br />

We have been honored to offer a good<br />

number of these Specimen Strike New<br />

Rochelle half dollars over the last few<br />

years, and each time we marvel at the<br />

dramatic flash the surfaces have!<br />

A very rare variant to the New<br />

Rochelle half dollar. During the<br />

production run, mint employees struck<br />

50 examples on polished planchets<br />

after polishing the dies. What keeps<br />

them from being full PROOFS, is that<br />

each coin was struck only once, rather<br />

than two or more times as required for striking proofs. As expected for the 66+ grade level, this coin has no hairlines, ticks, marks or<br />

carbon spotting. The strike is full and the fields are fully PL and display deep mirrors.<br />

PCGS 3, NGC 4, CAC 4. There are just two graded SP66+ at PCGS. We sold the other one in February 2017 for $12,925. A great coin<br />

to add to any advanced classic commemorative set, and we anticipate strong bidding when it comes to the block. Good luck!<br />

PCGS# 99335 | ESTIMATE: $9,000+<br />
