1823 Ugly 3 - O.110a R.1 PCGS AU 55
Broken, patched and ugly – three Red Book varieties of 1823. The first and last are especially difficult to find in high grade. Check your AMBPR for confirmation. (Email me if yours is out of date.) Here is an untoned, lustrous and flashy example of the Ugly 3. A thin band of gold runs through the dentils, nicely framing the brilliant centers. The Link provenance is noted on the PCGS label. From MB 43, lot 38, Aug. 2016 at $3,740. Estimate: $3,000 to $3,500
