1836 Bar Dot -  O.112 R.2 PCGS AU 58 CAC


Ex Meyer   Fiery orange toning safeguards the fully lustrous surfaces.  Flashes of iridescent gemstones punctuate the reverse.  This was Charlton Meyer’s set-piece for nearly 30 years.  He acquired it in October 1979 at Jerry Cohen’s and Abner Kreisberg’s “Quality Sales” auction, lot 430.  I offered the coin in July 2008 during the Baltimore ANA Convention.  My notes on the coin, written while preparing an appraisal of the Meyer Collection, include this cryptic comment, “AU 58 or better, sunset toning.”  A wonderful coin for color enthusiasts – and a fitting close to the sale.  From the Kings Park Collection.   Estimate: $1,200 to $1,600
