Lot 1371
1928-S. PCGS graded MS-65. Frosty with nice original obverse toning. The '28-S may be more abundant than its attendant P-mint counterpart in an absolute sense, but the usual offered specimen of the San Francisco issue will rarely win awards for eye appeal. The example offered here is far sharper than the usually encountered Mint State example, this lovely Gem is filled with luster, and isn’t extensively abraded like the rest. In fact, both sides are really vibrant in the luster quality which issues forth behind the luster; we note full, frosty-textured finish that provides visual impact. Original toned throughout, the surfaces are free of all but a few stray abrasions that are well within the parameters of the Gem Mint State 65 criterion. The strike is also laudable for an S-mint Peace Dollar, with the definition bold-to-sharp in most areas. An important condition rarity that belongs in a PCGS Registry Set of this highly collectible 20th century silver series. Pop 50; 2 finer, 1 in 65+, 1 in 66 (PCGS # 7374) .
Estimated Value $14,000 - 15,000.
