THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 450<br />
50C 1936-D SAN DIEGO. PCGS MS67 CAC<br />
We wish all San Diego half dollars looked like this! Blisteringly<br />
lustrous with a vibrance that grabs the viewer from across the<br />
room. But its glorious luster is just part of the story of this<br />
stunner--the other is the gorgeous toning at the rims on both sides<br />
that display the full spectrum of rainbow color that frames the<br />
brilliant silver centers. The eye appeal really is off the charts with<br />
this one!<br />
PCGS 102, NGC 49, CAC 62. The most recent PCGS coin to sell<br />
was CAC approved and sold for $3,840 and was the Bruce Schur<br />
coin. This amazing coin has a very similar look and is worthy of<br />
a premium bid.<br />
PCGS# 9372 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+<br />
LOT 451<br />
50C 1926 SESQUICENTENNIAL. PCGS MS65+ CAC<br />
A beautifully toned GEM example of this popular and important<br />
condition rarity in the classic commemorative series. While 141,120<br />
pieces were struck, they do not survive in great quantity in MS65<br />
or finer grades. Even fewer have killer original toning. Lustrous<br />
surfaces are smooth and defect free.<br />
PCGS 389, NGC <strong>29</strong>4, CAC 94. In MS65+, PCGS has graded<br />
19 pieces, the most recent of which sold for $3,525 in our July<br />
2018 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>. Prior to that one sold for $7,500 in<br />
April 2018. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $4,500.<br />
Only a dozen examples are graded finer at PCGS, all MS66. We<br />
sold a CAC-approved example for $22,325 in our December<br />
2017 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>. This one will see considerable bidding<br />
when it crosses the block, the eye appeal is SUPERB!<br />
PCGS# 9374 | ESTIMATE: $3,200+<br />
LOT 452<br />
50C 1935 SPANISH TRAIL. PCGS MS67+<br />
This piece is seriously above and beyond what you typically see.<br />
We rank this as a VERY high end MS67+.<br />
Virtually perfect surfaces are smooth all over. A moderate (good)<br />
luster glistens from the surfaces. Light pastel like colors of lilac/<br />
pale green/amber swirl all over. There are no discolorations or<br />
spots. All of the details are sharply struck and stand out. The eye<br />
appeal is gorgeous!<br />
PCGS 164, NGC 107. PCGS has graded 21 coins in MS67+. The<br />
last MS67+ to sell in auction brought $2,880 in December 2017.<br />
The current Collectorís Universe Value is $3,500. We predict<br />
strong bidding for this marvelous Commem!<br />
PCGS# 9376 | ESTIMATE: $3,000+<br />
LOT 453<br />
50C 1925 STONE MOUNTAIN. NGC MS67+ CAC<br />
VERY HIGH END! Satin, frosty mint luster blooms in the fields.<br />
The surfaces are clean and free of any distracting marks, as<br />
you would expect for a SUPERB GEM of this lofty grade. The<br />
details are very sharply struck up with all the details of Stonewall<br />
Jackson and Robert E. Lee crisply defined. Pleasing pale gold<br />
tone attests to the awesome originality!<br />
PCGS <strong>29</strong>0, NGC 186, CAC 98. There are only seven MS67+’s<br />
graded at NGC and none have sold in auction since March 2011.<br />
More recently a PCGS/CAC example sold in the 2018 FUN auction<br />
for $2,040 and the current Collector’s Universe value is listed at<br />
$2,500. There are 13 graded MS68 at NGC finer. What a great<br />
opportunity to add a wonderful example without spending $5,000+.<br />
PCGS# 9378 | ESTIMATE: $1,800+<br />
