THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />
LOT 189<br />
50C 1919-D PCGS MS64+ CAC<br />
Sometimes we wonder what the services were thinking<br />
when a coin crosses the grader’s desk. What did they see<br />
when grading this coin? To us, 64+ looks conservative!<br />
While we make no guarantees, we think this 1919-D is<br />
closer to MS65 grade than MS64. One look at this high<br />
quality example and you will agree its very HIGH END!<br />
This is a major condition rarity in this series! A strong<br />
luster gleams and glows from all over on this totally<br />
original early Walker. The satiny surfaces are smooth and<br />
incredibly clean. If this was a common date, it would<br />
have likely graded higher. The devices are all sharply<br />
struck up, there is just a hint of the slightest weakness<br />
on Liberty’s head. There is a tiny tick in the obverse<br />
but it does not affect the amazing eye appeal. The luster<br />
brings out the subtle lilac, icy blue, pale gold and light<br />
rose comes out in the light. Overall this is one of nicest<br />
examples we have had the pleasure of offering!<br />
PCGS 91, NGC 77, CAC 22. There are seven coins listed<br />
in 64+, and we believe that there is some duplication<br />
in the pops. The Population in MS65 is 11 and 1 in 66.<br />
While MS64+s have sold in the $32,000 to $41,125 range<br />
these are $200,000+ coins in MS65. This one, being so<br />
high end for the grade is certainly worthy of a premium<br />
bid and will sell for more than the current PCGS value of<br />
$42,500. A great coin for any PCGS Registry Set.<br />
PCGS# 6578 | ESTIMATE: $45,000+<br />
