Ex Don Frederick and Dr. Charles Link Lightly toned with flashy luster. Dr. Link was the winning bidder at the Heritage sale of Frederick’s capped bust halves in April 2010 (lot 3345 @ $1,840), undoubtedly impressed by the full strike on this scarce die pair. Frederick’s handwritten, unabashed personal notes accompany the lot. MS 65+ gem prooflike first strike or “specimen” strike. A fantastically sharp strike for this always poorly struck die variety. Tim acquired the piece in a trade with Dr. Link in November 2011.
Estimate: $850 to $1,150
