Housed in a first generation PCGS “rattler,” this scarce die pair will draw a crowd. The strike is exemplary; luster flows, bold and unbroken, through the fields. The untoned surfaces are free of distractions. In short, the coin has all the earmarks of today’s AU 58’s. Gauge your bid accordingly! Do not ignore the excitement that Keith Davignon’s 1825 O.117 generated in Aug. 2014 (MB 39, lot 37) when it sold for $2,541 against an estimate of $1,400 to $2,000. It was also graded PCGS AU 55. Accompanied by a prior owner’s 2x2 insert, noting a 1978 purchase from Bowers & Ruddy as “BU.”Est. $1,400 to $2,000.
