5C 1913 TYPE 2. PCGS<br />
MS67 CAC<br />
This is truly an ultra eye<br />
appealing and high end<br />
SUPERB GEM!<br />
Boldly lustrous fields yield to<br />
a light pastel iridescent toning<br />
when rotated in a light. hints<br />
of peach, gold and rose hues<br />
can be seen throughout. Fully<br />
struck, this first year Buffalo<br />
nickel has a superb eye appeal.<br />
PCGS 31, NGC 7, CAC 14.<br />
There has not been a PCGS/<br />
CAC MS67 sold in auction<br />
since August 2015, where an example sold for $9,400 in the ANA sale. The current Collector’s Universe value is listed at $6,500. Only<br />
six examples graded MS67+ are finer, including the Angel Dee’s coin which we sold in December 2016 for $10,281. We anticipate lots of<br />
bidding action on this one!<br />

LOT 82<br />
5C 1917 PCGS MS66+ CAC<br />
A superb example of this early date Buffalo nickel. While not rare<br />
in an absolute sense, they are rare in SUPERB grades. A vibrant<br />
luster glows in the fields, accenting the sharply struck up design<br />
elements and bringing the pastel peach and teal tone to life,<br />
imparting a wonderful, original eye appeal.<br />
PCGS 211, NGC 49, CAC 42. There are 16 graded in MS66+ and<br />
the last CAC-approved example realized $1,560 in the 2018 FUN<br />
auction. Just two dozen graded finer, the current PCGS value in<br />
66+ is $1,550.<br />
PCGS# 3934 | ESTIMATE: $1,350+<br />
LOT 83<br />
5C 1919 PCGS MS67<br />
No doubt that this impeccable SUPERB GEM is one of the<br />
finest graded 1919 nickels. Radiant, pearly, mint luster beams<br />
with a strong vibrancy on both sides. Sharply struck up on<br />
the obverse, there is a touch of bluntness noted on the central<br />
reverse, especially on the buffalo’s haunches. Pearly nickel<br />
silver and light iridescent hues can be seen in the fields,<br />
accenting the reliefs. A nice looking SUPERB GEM!<br />
PCGS 21, NGC 6. The most recent example to sell in auction<br />
realized $5,520 in the 2018 ANA <strong>Auction</strong>, and the current<br />
Collector’s Universe value is listed at $7,750. Only three coins<br />
are graded finer, all MS67+, the most recent of which sold for<br />
$17,038 in our December 2016 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>.<br />
