Another “sleeper” R.4+. Tim Osborne’s example, also graded PCGS AU 55 CAC, brought $1,157 four years ago. (MB 52, lot 41.) This flashy, largely untoned example, puts many AU 58s to shame! The semi-prooflike reverse appears mint-state. Drawn stars and striking weakness in the portrait are indicators of the worn obverse die; I suspect they influenced the PCGS graders. From the Kings Park Collection.Estimate: $1,000 to $1,200.
