THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 67<br />
3CN 1889 PCGS PR67 CAM CAC<br />
We could not see this SUPERB GEM ever grading any thing less<br />
than PR67 CAM. Somehow, this 1<strong>29</strong> year old coin has survived<br />
in top condition. We consider that amazing!<br />
Bold mirrors have lots of flash with bold clarity and reflection.<br />
There is a faint hint of original lilac/gold colors. Sharply struck<br />
and frosty with a neat contrast and total original surfaces,<br />
imparting a great look.<br />
PCGS 25, NGC 12, CAC 20. The most recent PCGS/CAC coin<br />
to sell in auction realized $1,560 June 2018. The current PCGS<br />
Price Guide value is listed at $1,300. Only five are finer, with a<br />
single PR68 CAM finest. This will be a great coin to add to any<br />
GEM set!<br />

5C 1866 RAYS. PCGS MS65<br />
Beautiful rings of rainbow toning forms a concentric almost<br />
target pattern that is enlivened by bold, flashy luster on the<br />
obverse and a frosty, satiny glow on the reverse. A few major<br />
die cracks on both sides show why the design was changed in<br />
1867. Sharply struck on both sides in most places though, there<br />
is some weakness which is natural in light of the hardness of the<br />
copper-nickel alloy..<br />
PCGS 165, NGC 174. The last few examples to sell in auction<br />
realized in the $1,100 to $1,200 range and the current PCGS<br />
value is listed at $1,550. Very rare any finer, this first year of the<br />
nickel will be a great way to start off a Shield nickel set.<br />

OUR ESTIMATES<br />
The estimates you see published in this catalog are based on<br />
HAMMER. Keep in mind that a coin could be either low or<br />
high end for the grade, have stunning color or be dull, all of<br />
which radically affect a coin’s value. Yes, there can be huge<br />
price differences within a grade, and we offer estimates as<br />
a guide so Collector’s can have a better idea of value. One<br />
thing we will never do is offer low ball estimates in order to<br />
claim stronger sales.<br />

5C 1875 PCGS PR66 CAC<br />
Wonderfully brilliant, reflective mirrored fields beam from all<br />
over, with a wonderful flash. Surfaces of icy blue with touches of<br />
light gold grace both sides of this chrome-like steely reflective. A<br />
strong glass reveals a few tiny flecks, but they do not intrude on<br />
the great eye appeal.<br />
PCGS 23, NGC 21, CAC 14. The most recent PCGS/CAC<br />
example sold in February 2017 for $1,528 and the current PCGS<br />
value is listed at $1,300. Worthy of any collection of Shield<br />
nickels, a series that has come down in value a bit in the last few<br />
years, making it a great time to start a set.<br />
These published estimates represent what Legend Rare Coin<br />
<strong>Auction</strong>s determines to be an approximate high wholesale<br />
value for the coin. The numbers are based upon current<br />
market values, similar trades, auction prices, published<br />
prices, and a consideration of the coin’s quality. There is<br />
no guarantee that the estimated prices are minimums or are<br />
exactly what you can expect to get if you attempt to resell<br />
them wholesale.<br />
We always advise you to view the coins you are interested in<br />
and calculate what you’ll pay using as much information as<br />
possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us.<br />
