Lot 596
1863. NGC graded Proof 68. PQ. A near perfect coin with fantastic untouched surfaces, radiant reflectivity and frosty devices. The whole flan is toned with delicate teal and lemon in areas, lighter silver elsewhere. Struck during the depths of the Civil War, not many Proofs were ordered and even fewer were saved. Today the number known is quite limited and after 35 years of certifiying coins, this one apparently is the finest known, and alone at the top position technically for this elusive issue. Only 460 struck. Pop 1; the finest example graded at both services. Estimated Value $15,000 - UP
*This coin contains the COIN WORLD PLUS sticker.
