G $1 1856-S PCGS MS64+ SS CENTRAL AMERICA

$97,500.00

This is one of the rarest G $1 you can collect. It is the second finest known. Many of you may have read about the outrageous display of all the #1 coins coming up at ANA, well through our connections we are lucky enough to be able to buy most of the #2 coins (including a $20 57S MS67 and a monster $5 among others). Whe we were offered this coin, we jumped and bought it. Great coin, can’t beat the provence, and great quality! If someone did not tell you it had been under the sea for 100+ years, you really would not know it. They did a wonderful job of conservation here. The surfaces are pretty clean overall. Just a few frost breaks/light ticks that you need a glass to see are detectable. A surprising die crack is on the right obverse. Overall, the surfaces appear satiny smooth. The luster is bold and glowing. Both sides are a brilliant yellow gold color. Remarkably, Miss Liberty and all of the details are  pinpoint sharp in strike. The eye appeal is tremendous! From the Shipwreck this it the only MS64+ with the just one coin finer. In real life, PCGS 3, NGC 5, CAC 6 (that includes this coin). It is important to also know the only PCGS MS64 that sold in auction brought $41,125.00 01/2016. Today, we estimate that coin at $50,000.00-$60,000.00 and that is a NON Shipwreck and NO +. You can not get another in this grade. The only one finer would cost you well into six figures (we are talking $175,000.00 ++). How often can you buy one of the very finest coins that is also from a genuine historical treasure ship? If you are building a real top set, this coin belongs in it! No question this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
