THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 112<br />
10C 1879 PCGS MS67+ CAC<br />
WOW! Almost identical to the<br />
PCGS MS68 CAC we sold last<br />
year. This coin for sure is the<br />
epitome of what HIGH END and a<br />
+ means! There is no question this<br />
coin sat totally undisturbed for over<br />
139 years.<br />
Phenomenal surfaces are both<br />
satiny and have strong traces of<br />
semi-prooflike mirrors. There are<br />
no impairments to be found-even<br />
by using a strong glass. A moderate<br />
luster is enlivened by the slight<br />
flash of the mirrors. Both sides<br />
enjoy the ultimate in totally original toning-bull’s eye toning. The obverse has a gorgeous circle of aqua blue/violet that opens into<br />
champagne centers. The reverse has stunning blue/green/violet circular toning. Miss Liberty and the details are fully struck. The<br />
eye appeal is remarkable!<br />
PCGS 27, NGC 42, CAC 12. PCGS has graded only 3 in MS67+. PCGS has graded 3 in MS68. One sold for $25,850 in 2017. The<br />
current Collector’s Universe Value for the MS67+ is $5,000. Seems cheap to us. We doubt you will ever see more than a handful of<br />
ANY date Mint State Seated Dime surviving in such a pristine condition like this! Oh does opportunity knock loud here!<br />
LOT 113<br />
10C 1882 PCGS MS67+ CAC<br />
This impressive SUPERB GEM is tied<br />
with just a single other for FINEST<br />
GRADED at PCGS. Everything about<br />
this coin is GORGEOUS and high end!<br />
PCGS# 4687 | ESTIMATE: $4,500+<br />
A radiant, satiny luster has a forceful<br />
vibrance. The obverse fields have a<br />
subtle prooflike flash, particularly<br />
around the date. Stunning pastel teal,<br />
gold, peach-rose toning dusts the<br />
surfaces, the various tinges of color<br />
coming out as you rotate the lustrous<br />
surfaces under a light. Sharply struck<br />
up, every device is fully and crisply<br />
rendered by a forceful blow from the dies. The eye appeal is very high end and you will be hard pressed to find a more<br />
beautiful example.<br />
PCGS 18, NGC 26, CAC 12. There are two coins graded MS67+ and none are finer. Neither of these have ever sold via auction!<br />
We sold a PCGS MS67 CAC (no “+”) for $2,585 in our July 2017 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>. An NGC MS68 sold in July 2005 for $5,750.<br />
The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $5,500. A great coin for a type or date set of Seated dimes. if you collect the<br />
FINEST, this is your coin for sure!<br />
PCGS# 4690 | ESTIMATE: $4,000+<br />
