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

LOT 162<br />

50C 1811/10 PCGS AU58<br />

O-101. A later state of the dies the stars and legends drawn to<br />

the edges with little to no milling left on both sides. Lustrous<br />

silver surfaces are brilliant in the centers and there is a dusting<br />

of gold iridescence and richer pewter-dove. Boldly struck<br />

devices show only the slightest hint of friction keeps this lovely<br />

1811/10 out of a Mint State holder.<br />

PCGS 20, NGC 10. The current PCGS Price Guide value is<br />

listed at $6,500 and the most recent examples have sold in the<br />

general $4,000-$6,000 range. A good looking coin like this will<br />

see strong bidding from early half dollar specialists.<br />

PCGS# 6099 | ESTIMATE: $4,000+<br />

LOT 163<br />

50C 1811 SMALL 8. PCGS AU58<br />

O-106. A frosty, lustrous AU58 with all the attribution points for<br />

this R-3 variety clearly visible. A few stray lines are perhaps the<br />

reason CAC did not bean this flashy early date Bust half. The<br />

eye appeal is very nice and is not a dull AU coin.<br />

PCGS 93, NGC 80. The current PCGS Price Guide value is<br />

listed at $2,700 and the most recent example to sell in auction<br />

was CAC-approved and realized $3,410 in January 2018.<br />

Non-CAC coins have sold in the $1,500-$2,000 range. This one<br />

will be a great addition to any set of Capped Bust half dollars or<br />

an AU58 type set.<br />

PCGS# 6097 | ESTIMATE: $1,300+<br />

LOT 164<br />

50C 1812 PCGS AU58<br />

O-105a. Offering near full mint luster on both sides, this frosty<br />

AU58 has a vibrance that you norally only see on Mint State<br />

coins. Nicely struck, the devices show only the lightest touch of<br />

friction. Struck from a shattered obverse die with multiple die<br />

cracks, this coin has a lot of charm and good looks, enhanced by<br />

a touch of delicate gold-peach at the rims.<br />

PCGS 132, NGC 86. The last one to sell realized $1,560 in<br />

June 2018 and the current PCGS value is listed at $2,150. An<br />

excellent example for any collector.<br />

lists value at $2,250. We last sold an example of this date at<br />
