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

LOT 203<br />

50C 1941 PCGS PR68<br />

SUPERB! WOW! This beautiful example is totally original<br />

and offering a wonderful look. The mirrors are deep and bold,<br />

offering an exceptional clarity below the iridescent tone.<br />

Remarkably well preserved and we are not exactly sure why<br />

CAC did not sticker this handsome coin.<br />

PCGS 27, NGC 51. The last example to sell without CAC<br />

approval realized $6,463 in July 2017. The current PCGS Price<br />

Guide value is $6,500 and there are just three coins graded<br />

higher, all PR68+ (and one of those sold for $18,800 in our May<br />

2018 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>). A highly appealing coin that would be<br />

a great addition to any set of Proof Walkers.<br />

PCGS# 6641 | ESTIMATE: $4,000+<br />

LOT 204<br />

50C 1959-D PCGS MS66+ FBL CAC<br />

Among the finest certified examples, this Premium Quality GEM<br />

has a great look. Highly lustrous surfaces coin has multicolored,<br />

dappled toning on the rims and brilliant silver on the central<br />

obverse, while the central reverse has wonderful orange, rose,<br />

red, gold, and green melange. The surfaces are essentially pristine<br />

and the eye appeal is very high end and original.<br />

PCGS 172, NGC 42, CAC <strong>29</strong>. There are only 15 in MS66+<br />

FBL with just a 67 and a 67+ finer. We sold an example in our<br />

December 2016 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong> for $1,645. This coin brought<br />

$1,560 in March 2018. The current PCGS value is $2,000 and<br />

keep in mind that the two finer examples have never sold in<br />

auction, and may not for quite some time!<br />

PCGS# 86677 | ESTIMATE: $1,200+<br />

LOT 205<br />

50C 1954 PCGS PR68 CAM CAC<br />

Blistering mirrors dance in the light and provide dramatic<br />

contrast to the frosty white reliefs. The eye appeal is superb,<br />

and keep in mind that in DCAM this date is very rare.<br />

PCGS 78, NGC 213, CAC 50. In the Cameo designation, there<br />

is just a SINGLE coin numerically finer at PCGS. The last two<br />

PCGS/CAC coins sold in our October 2017 auctions, realizing<br />

$1,028 and the PCGS Price Guide is listed at $1,050. Keep in<br />

mind that a PR68 DCAM would cost $10,000+.<br />

PCGS# 86695 | ESTIMATE: $1,000+<br />

LOT 206<br />

50C 1964-D PCGS MS67+<br />

A truly SUPERB GEM J.F.K. half dollar! With just four others<br />

graded MS67+ and a single coin graded finer, this is among the<br />

absolute FINEST 64-D halves in existence!<br />

Highly lustrous surfaces gleam with a a visually arresting<br />

vibrance. Pastel salmon, lime, and olive tone accents the boldly<br />

struck devices. It is amazing how few SUPERB GEMs survive,<br />

despite the huge mintage.<br />

PCGS 5, NGC 1. Only two have ever sold in auction, one for<br />

$2,101 and the other brought $5,405. A single MS68 has ever<br />

been graded, selling for a record $22,325 in our February 2016<br />

<strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong>. Bidding for this super JFK will see intense<br />

bidding for sure.<br />

PCGS# 6707 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+<br />
