Lot 1185
1923-S. PCGS graded MS-65 PQ. Housed in an Old Green Holder. Lovely golden toning. Well struck and should be graded MS66. No spots on this coin. To see this coin is to admire it deeply, and to consider its intrinsic worth is tantamount to making this a "must have" piece for the specialist. To begin with among an elite few graded at PCGS with just higher. Aspects as striking, attractiveness of toning, and overall eye appeal are not part of the number. Thus, it could just be that this is among very loveliest 1923-S Buffalo nickels on the market today.
That said, the coin is further described as being well struck, entirely lustrous, and with light patina as described evenly dispersed on both sides. Among the marvelous gems in this collection, this is certainly one of the more important S-mint dates. Pop 39; 3 finer, 1 in 65+, 2 in 66 (PCGS # 3950) .
Estimated Value $10,000 - 11,000.
