Lot Number 98

Ex Keith Davignon  Scandalous color and luster will attract a legion of bidders.  This was lot 2250 in B&M’s Nov. 2007 sale of Don Willis’ memorable “Premier Collection.”  With a modest R.2 rarity rating, the `30-116 has nonetheless proved elusive in high grade.  Tim Osborne’s PCGS AU 58 CAC, for example, recently sold for $3,801 in MB 52, lot 43.  The Davignon specimen, offered here, is a match for Tim’s coin; it arrived too late for a visit to CAC.  My guess is that a green bean lies in its future.  Do NOT be shy with your bid on this beauty.   Estimate: $2,500 and up
