THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 33<br />
1C 1885 PCGS PR65 RD CAC<br />
An awesome, bright red, highly reflective, GEM Proof! This<br />
coin’s mirrors are like a beaming headlight! Sharply struck and<br />
offering SUPERB looks, we think this coin is conservatively<br />
graded in its ancient first generation slab.<br />
PCGS 20, NGC 5, CAC 2. The last PCGS/CAC coin to sell in<br />
auction brought $1,528 in a June 2015 auction; prior to that the<br />
same coin sold for $2,115 in the Gene Gardner Collection sale.<br />
Worthy of a very strong bid, this GEM will delight even the<br />
pickiest collector!<br />
PCGS# 2344 | ESTIMATE: $1,600+<br />
LOT 34<br />
1C 1886 VARIETY 1. PCGS PR67 BN CAC<br />
This coin is ULTRA high end! The fields have a bold flashy<br />
reflection that captivate the viewer. The surfaces are icy<br />
smooth and essentially flawless in every way. A rich underlying<br />
chocolate brown has a gentle overtone of violet and teal that is<br />
very attractive. We know that the original tissue paper that came<br />
with the original proofs can tone the cents this way. The eye<br />
appeal is just stunning!<br />
PCGS 16, NGC 3, CAC 1. There are only two coins graded<br />
finer. NO CAC approved example has sold in auction. The<br />
current PCGS value is listed at $2,250. The single PR68 BN graded by PCGS had very similar look and sold for over $10,000 over<br />
two years ago. We think this coin will exceed the PCGS price by a substantial margin!<br />
PCGS# 2345 | ESTIMATE: $2,200+<br />
LOT 35<br />
1C 1909 V.D.B. PCGS MS67+ RD CAC<br />
An AMAZING example! Clearly this one is among the FINEST<br />
examples that survives from the first Lincoln cent issue.<br />
Amazing original RED copper color is magnificently brought to<br />
life with a glowing ember-like fiery luster. Boasting superlative<br />
eye appeal, this uber-GEM features fully struck devices and<br />
pristine surfaces.<br />
PCGS 238, NGC 88, CAC 59. There are 39 graded MS67+ RD,<br />
and there is just a single coin graded higher. We sold the most<br />
recent PCGS/CAC example that brought $3,960 in our August<br />
2018 Premier Session. The two most recent were NOT CAC and brought $4,560 and $6,000. The current CU value is $5,000.<br />
PCGS# 2425 | ESTIMATE: $3,200+<br />
