1822 - O.104 R.2 PCGS XF 45
Ex Olin “Ole” Carter. You will be hard pressed to find a prettier XF 45. Album toning explains the colorful halo of iridescent colors. Hues of pale gold cloak the centers. Luster glows throughout. Circulation ticks, none of any consequence, confirm a short-term tour in commerce. Ole Carter assisted me at coin shows throughout the 1980s and 1990s. We lost him to a heart attack in 2005. He was a noted cherry picker, capped by his discoveries of the rare 1823 O.113 and 1825 O.118. At the request of his widow, I sold most of his coins a few years later. This `22-104 sold privately in 2008. Estimate: $300 to $400
