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

LOT 61<br />

3CN 1871 PCGS PR67+ CAC<br />

BRUCE SCHER<br />

We can’t say enough about this stunning<br />

SUPERB GEM. It is the FINEST graded<br />

1871 Proof 3CN.<br />

Exciting deep mirrors are a joy to<br />

behold. The mirrors beam boldly from<br />

all over. They enjoy supreme clarity and<br />

cleanliness. Even putting a strong glass<br />

to the coin yields zero imperfections.<br />

The contrast is close to Cameo. Miss<br />

Liberty and the details are fully struck<br />

and do have light frost. This is far<br />

superior to the typical 1871 you will<br />

typically see. The eye appeal is tremendous!<br />

PCGS 1, NGC 1, CAC 2. This is the ONLY PR67+ graded. We don’t even see a Collector’s Universe Value for it. A 147-year-old coin<br />

like this in the ultimate state of preservation, in our opinion, should be worth closer to $10,000.00 (which is what this coin once traded<br />

for). Today, for sure, the market has chosen to overlook these. If you are building a SUPERB GEM 3CN set, this is a must have!<br />

LOT 62<br />

3CN 1872 PCGS PR65 DCAM<br />

A wonderful, deeply contrasted GEM with bold, reflective mirrors and<br />

well struck frosty devices. The mirrored fields are generally devoid of<br />

any toning and there are no serious hairlines or marks.<br />

PCGS# 3767 | ESTIMATE: $7,500+<br />

Only 950 were struck. PCGS 2, NGC 0. While the Collector’s<br />

Universe value is listed at $4,250, there are no auction prices in PR65<br />

DCAM. This is a very rare DCAM--what a great opportunity for the<br />

advanced 3CN Proof collector!<br />

PCGS# 93768 | ESTIMATE: $4,500+<br />

LOT 63<br />

3CN 1877 PCGS PR67+ CAM CAC<br />

This is an “out of this world”<br />

magnificent coin that is tied for FINEST<br />

graded. It absolutely is worthy of this<br />

lofty designation.<br />

Pristine surfaces are wonderful to see.<br />

Even using a strong glass there are no<br />

negatives. The mirrors are deep and<br />

beam boldly from all over. Plus, the<br />

mirrors are crystal clear. There are<br />

ZERO spots or discolorations. The<br />

contrast is bold. Miss Liberty and the<br />

details are fully struck and thickly<br />

frosted. The eye appeal is magnificent!<br />

PCGS 15, NGC 22, CAC 17. PCGS has graded only 2 in PR67+ cameo. There are NO coins graded higher. Of course, there are no<br />

auction records for either coin ever selling. There is a $12,000 Collector’s Universe Value. This is a terrific SUPERB GEM to that will fit<br />

in ANY high-end set.<br />

PCGS# 83773 | ESTIMATE: $10,000+<br />
