1822 - O.112 R.4+ PCGS AU 50
Ex Charlton E. Meyer, Jr. and Keith Davignon. A distinctly scarce die pair, recently elevated from R.4 to R.4+. Tim acquired the coin from Keith Davignon in Feb. 2012. Davignon’s notes trace the provenance to Charlton Meyer, Jr. The only AU 50 offered at auction over the past 10 or more years is an NGC graded piece that brought $1,410 in Heritage’s Feb. 2015 Dallas auction. Muted luster, stronger in protected areas, lies beneath a natural grey patina. Estimate: $800 to $1,200
