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

LOT 114<br />

10C 1866 PCGS PR65+ DCAM<br />

One look at this GEM and there is no question to the DCAM<br />

classification! The mirrors are deep and beaming and offer the<br />

boldest of awesome reflection. The mirrored surfaces offer a stark<br />

contrast to the highly frosted and fully rendered devices. A light<br />

blush of the clearest of gold toning. We not a single obverse line<br />

in the field that would account for CAC not stickering this GEM.<br />

PCGS 5, NGC 2. This is the ONLY PR65+ DCAM at PCGS and<br />

there are only three coins graded finer. The last regular PR65<br />

DCAM sold for $2,585 in December 2015, while a PR66 DCAM<br />

sold for $9,200 in September 2010. A very eye appealing Proof<br />

Seated dime, worthy of any collection of CAM and DCAM coins.<br />

PCGS# 94759 | ESTIMATE: $3,500+<br />

LOT 115<br />

10C 1883 PCGS PR67 CAM CAC<br />

Truly a spectacular SUEPRB GEM Proof Seated dime. The<br />

contrast borders on the ULTRA CAMEO, especially on the<br />

obverse. The sharply struck design elements are fully frosted<br />

with a cloud-like white frostiness and the mirrors are deep,<br />

clear, and beaming from all over. They have a strong headlight<br />

flash that is blinding when viewed in a light, really you will<br />

need sunglasses to look at this one!<br />

PCGS 9, NGC 8, CAC 9. There has not been a PCGS/CAC coin<br />

sold since April 2013, where one realized $4,700. That was five<br />

long years ago! The current Collector’s Universe value is listed<br />

at $3,500. There is just a single CAM graded finer, a toned<br />

PR68 CAM that last sold for $8,400. This stunning blast silver<br />

white SUPERB GEM will fit into any really high end set!<br />

PCGS# 84780 | ESTIMATE: $3,000+<br />

LOT 116<br />

10C 1888 PCGS PR67 CAM CAC<br />

This SUPERB GEM is unbeatable in every respect. It has<br />

superior quality and is really rare. Deep mirrors beam boldly<br />

from all over. They are crystal clear, clean, and are loaded with<br />

nearly blinding flash. When you twirl the coin, the mirrors look<br />

like a flowing river of flash. Both sides are white with a trace of<br />

nearly invisible gold on the reverse. Miss Liberty and every detail<br />

are crisply struck and stand out with thick frost.<br />

Only 832 were minted. PCGS 3, NGC 6, CAC 5. PCGS has<br />

graded only one coin-a PR67+ CAC higher (it sold for $8,700<br />

in April 2018). An NGC piece just brought $3,360 in June 2018.<br />

It is our strong opinion, coins like this are grossly UNDER<br />

valued in today’s market. After 30+ years of grading by PCGS<br />

and there are only possibly 4 in PR67 and NO PR68’s? We can’t<br />

see why this is not a $4-$5,000 coin. Opportunity does not just<br />

knock here, it pounds deafening loud!<br />

LOT 117<br />

10C 1894 PCGS MS65<br />

A satiny, original gem with a totally unique look. This coin is<br />

housed in a first generation holder, and has a frosty luster and<br />

mottled, multi-hued toning that blends with the pleasing, pearly<br />

iridescent silver surfaces. We note a mark or two. The eye appeal is<br />

very nice.<br />

PCGS 30, NGC 20. Remarkably RARE any finer, with just a dozen<br />

coins graded. Two sold earlier this year, one for $900 and one for<br />

$1,020 and the current CU value is $1,050.<br />

PCGS# 4803 | ESTIMATE: $900+<br />

PCGS# 84785 | ESTIMATE: $3,500+<br />
