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

LOT 74<br />

5C 1883 NO CENTS. PCGS PR65 CAC<br />

This watery-reflective GEM is totally original and FRESH to the<br />

market, graded 30+ years ago, and housed in a first generation<br />

holder. Lovely iridescent tone is seen on both sides, and the<br />

surfaces are clean for the grade. A lovely eye appeal.<br />

PCGS 310, NGC 249, CAC 31. The current PCGS value is $550<br />

and this one, should realize around that. A very affordable GEM<br />

Proof of this one year only type.<br />

PCGS# 3878 | ESTIMATE: $525+<br />

LOT 75<br />

5C 1885 PCGS PR66+<br />

Wonderfully reflective fields show a touch of swirling luster that<br />

glows on both sides of this GEM Lib nickel. The 1885 is the<br />

KEY issue among circulation strikes, putting strong demand on<br />

the Proofs to fill a difficult hole in a GEM set. A delicate golden<br />

iridescent tone gently caresses both sides.. The details show<br />

needle-point precision and the surfaces are defect free overall.<br />

PCGS 10, NGC 2. There has not been one sold since 2015, and the<br />

market has changed since then. The current PCGS value is listed at<br />

$2,300. Rare any finer, with fewer than 30 coins graded higher.<br />

PCGS# 3883 | ESTIMATE: $1,600+<br />

LOT 76<br />

5C 1900 PCGS PR68 CAC<br />

To sort of quote a favorite<br />

oldie song we love: “Ah sugar,<br />

sugar, oh honey, honey, you<br />

are my candy girl....” This<br />

coin for sure is a SUPERB<br />

sugary treat!<br />

Yummy, yummy, this coin<br />

has strong mirrors that<br />

beam all over. Even using<br />

a strong glass, you can see<br />

how delectably sweet and<br />

completely smooth and clean<br />

the surfaces are. Mother<br />

nature just loves her sweets!<br />

She created a masterpiece of<br />

delicious colors all over. Vivid and totally original shades of lilac/amber/pale violet/lime/light pearl green swirl everywhere. Miss Liberty<br />

and the details are needle sharp in strike and have delicate frost. The eye appeal is heavenly awesome!<br />

PCGS 3, NGC 1, CAC 3. The last PCGS PR 68 to sell was a NON-CAC. And it was forever ago back in 2003. That coin brought<br />

$14,375. Fast forward, these are impossible to find-especially with beautiful candy colors like this coin has. This piece will be a stand out<br />

in any GEM Type or PR Liberty set. Good luck!<br />

PCGS# 3898 | ESTIMATE: $9,000+<br />
