THE REGENCY AUCTION 29
LOT 29
1C 1883 PCGS PR67 BN CAC
When Proof Indian cents tone up like this, they are among the
most pretty copper coins we get to handle. This one is SUPERB
in every way! The surfaces are ultra smooth with bold icy
sleekness. Hints of reddish gold can be seen among the overtones
of wonderful violet-brown. The eye appeal is exceptional.
PCGS 21, NGC 17, CAC 8. The last PCGS/CAC coin to sell in
auction was the “Perfection 2” coin that sold in the 2016 FUN
auction for $2,820. More recently a PCGS without CAC sold for
$2,160 The current Collector’s Universe value is listed at $2,850
and this one should bring well in excess given its amazing look!
PCGS# 2336 | ESTIMATE: $1,800+
LOT 30
1C 1883 PCGS PR67+ BN CAC
We could see this coin one day in a PR68 BN holder, but no
promises though. PCGS showed this coin NO mercy!
Intense mirrors beam boldly all over, offering extreme clarity,
remarkable cleanliness, and the reflection is so bold it can light
up a room. If you twirl the coin, the mirrored fields look like
a rolling wave of water. Both sides are a gorgeous and totally
original brown/pale blue color. This coin has NOT been messed
with in any way. Every detail is needle sharp in strike and has
thick frost. The appeal is amazing!
PCGS 26, NGC 18, CAC 8. PCGS has graded 5 coins in PR 67+
BN. Does not matter what the color, this coin is clearly one of
the finest 1883 Proofs you will ever see! The current Collector’s
Universe Value is listed at $5,750 and we think this coin will set a
price record! Good luck!
PCGS# 2336 | ESTIMATE: $4,000+
LOT 31
1C 1884 PCGS PR66+ BN
A beautifully toned GEM 1884 Proof Indian cent. Rich brick red
in the fields meet with a wonderful teal-blue and magenta-violet.
The eye appeal is SUPERB in every way!
PCGS 39, NGC 29. This is the SOLE PR66+ BN graded at either
service, and there are only a dozen finer in the BN designation.
The current CU value is listed at $1,450 and this coin will attract
monster bids from collectors of monster toners.
PCGS# 2339 | ESTIMATE: $900+
LOT 32
1C 1885 PCGS PR65 RD
Here is a brilliant RED Proof 1885 Indian cent. The obverse has
bright orange-red reflective mirrors that shine on with strong
brilliance, while the reverse has richer, brick red accents. The
sharply struck devices stand out against the mirrored fields. There
are a few tiny micro specks that are noted, but none are singularly
distracting to the very pleasing eye appeal. Housed in a first
generation “rattler” holder.
PCGS 20, NGC 5. The last three have sold in the $881 to $1,293
range, and the current Collector’s Universe value is listed at
$1,350. Rare any finer with just 14 coins graded higher in the
designation. Totally fresh to the market, we anticipate this GEM
bringing serious bidding.
