1819/8 - O.103a R.3 PCGS AU 55 CAC
Richly toned in shades of turquoise, gold, rose and chestnut. Charlton Meyer found the coin in a September 1986 Stack’s sale (lot 62). I offered it privately in 2008. It was last seen in Heritage’s January 2011 FUN Show sale (hidden in an Internet-only session). The coin is every bit as nice as the similarly graded, CAC approved specimen offered this past January in MB 57, lot 73, @ $3,493.
Estimate: $3,000 to $3,500
