Lot 1987
1905. PCGS graded MS-67+ PQ. The present Superb Gem is the single finest thus far graded at PCGS, one finer (an MS-68) has been seen at NGC. These late-date Philadelphia Liberty Head gold coins represent ultimate value for collectors, and they seem to see unceasing demand. The 1905 is scarcer in Gem (and finer) conditions than other late dates in the series. This bright honey-gold piece is frosty with amazing cartwheel luster radiating from each side. Even moderate magnification fails to reveal any mentionable marks, as expected of the assigned grade. A few of the peripheral obverse stars are softly struck, as are some of the eagle's neck feathers on the reverse, the only mentionable footnote on this otherwise gorgeous type coin. Pop 1; none finer at PCGS. (PCGS # 8411) .
Estimated Value $25,000 - 30,000.
