H.10 1857-O PCGS MS67

This is a beautiful and high end coin. This was bought out of a Legend’s 07/2017 sale by a crack out guy. Obviously he resubmitted it for a + and did not get it (nor do we think the coin is a +). He then sold it to a friend of his who offered it to us. Here is our description from the sale: An amazing looking SUPERB GEM 57-O half dime. Vibrant satiny luster swirls on exceptionally clean and smooth surfaces. The obverse has hints of golden-amber toning that helps provide contrast between the fully defined, crisply struck devices and the silky smooth surfaces. The reverse is more dramatically toned, with broad swaths of rich orange-amber tones. The eye appeal is truly exceptional, no wonder the late, great collector Gene Gardner chose this coin for his cabinet. PCGS 4, NGC 4, CAC 4. This is the only PCGS MS67 sold at auction in this decade; prior to this one selling in the May 2015 Gardner auction for $6,169, the last one sold in October 2006 for $8,625. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $7,500 and keep in mind, if you are building a set of Seated half dimes, this is tied for second finest, behind the magnificent MS68. This is a great looking SUPERB gem and destined for a fine cabinet. In our July Regency Sale this coin brought $7,344.00. We’ll pass the savings on to you! WE HAVE POSTED THIS COIN AT OUR BEST PRICE
