1829 - O.106 R.5- PCGS AU 55

Medium chestnut-brown toning, the reverse lighter. Subdued luster throughout. Unmarked surfaces. AU R.5s, I’ve often remarked, are caviar for advanced collectors. Scorzafava found this one in the Hinkelman’s bourse case some time ago and understood it to be from the fabled collection of Elton Dosier. My notes from 1997, the year Elton died, indicate that he had an uncirculated example of this rarity. Perhaps this coin was a duplicate. Estimate: $900 to $1,200
