Lot Number 20

Ex Dr. Charles Link.  Yet another rarity with dazzling luster and toning.  From MB 43 (Anaheim ANA 2016), lot 62 at $4,346.  One of two MS 62 examples plated on PCGS CoinFacts.  Link provenance noted on the PCGS label.  I described it this way: Outrageous toning will draw oohs and aahs from those previewing the lot.  Luster shimmers beneath a rainbow of iridescent colors.  The surfaces are smooth as glass.  And, yes, this IS an O.111, right behind the 1828 O.105 and 123 in the list of rare 1828s.  Cherry pickers look for the jagged die break joining the top drapery line to Liberty’s curls.  Herrman identifies three other UNCs, providing assurance that this is a Condition Census offering.  Its rarity in high grade is no secret.  PCGS suggests a value of $4,000 at this level.    

Estimate: $3,500 to $4,500
