THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 156<br />
25C 1952-S PCGS MS68 CAC<br />
It is amazing what Mother Nature and cardboard can do! This<br />
coin is all about the killer colors.<br />
Technically this coin is all there and then some. The colors are<br />
totally original (cardboard Mint set holder type toning).<br />
The obverse has circular rings of pearl green/amber/violet that<br />
open into a moderate gold center. We rank the obverse colors<br />
are 9+ on our 1-10 color scale (10 is the best). The reverse is<br />
just gorgeous too. There is a partial circle of pearl green/violet<br />
that opens into light sky blue color. There is a strong luster<br />
illuminating these colors. The eye appeal is tremendous!<br />
The last PCGS CAC piece to sell that was toned brought a<br />
whopping $11,500 in April 2013. The toner buyers for sure<br />
will determine the value of this coin. Our estimate is only a<br />
guesstimate. We know there will be crazy strong bidding here!<br />
LOT 157<br />
25C 1958 PCGS PR68+ DCAM<br />
It is amazing that a coin housed in the original cellophane<br />
holder could survive in such spectacular condition! Not only is<br />
this coin SUPERB in every way, it is also among the absolute<br />
finest known! Ultra deep mirrors contrast against the highly<br />
frosted devices. Visually FLAWLESS, even with a powerful<br />
loupe, there are ZERO imperfections!<br />
PCGS 1, NGC 0. Only five coins are graded finer. While this<br />
SUPERB GEM has not sold in auction, a PR69 sold for $6,300<br />
in February 2018. We think this coin will sell for a price over<br />
the suggested PCGS Price Guide value of $1,850. Good luck!<br />

50C 1801 OVERTON 101. PCGS<br />
XF45<br />
Anyone who collects this series knows<br />
how difficult the 1801 half dollar<br />
is to find in attractive XF; most are<br />
lightly cleaned and are dull. This coin<br />
is a happy exception overall. Light<br />
silver-gray surfaces have a delicate,<br />
somewhat dappled rose, pewter, and<br />
coppery-gold toning on both sides.<br />
Accents of surviving luster adds a<br />
depth to the eye appeal in the recesses<br />
of the design elements. There are a<br />
few tiny ticks here and there but none<br />
are detracting to the overall good eye<br />
appeal.<br />
PCGS 20, NGC 11. The last one to sell sold very cheaply, considering previous auction results, bringing $5,280 in the 2018 ANA<br />
auction. A CAC-approved coin brought $9,000 in a May 2017 Internet only auction. The current PCGS value is listed at $9,250.<br />
Keep in mind that an AU coin is worth about $13,000-$15,000.<br />
