Lead $1 1893-O PCGS MS66PL CAC EX ELIASBERG
Description
CORONET COLLECTION This is yet another special former Eliasberg coin that makes you wonder if it’s really a Specimen or possibly a Proof. One thing’s for sure, this off the charts coin is the all time finest 1893-O! If you want to really scrutinize this piece, there are a few microscopic ticks scattered around, but overall the surfaces are extremely clean. Both sides exhibit nearly flawless, icy, 4” mirrors, and nearly 6” mirrors on the reverse with great clarity. A warm, sensational mix of original blue/violet/pale burnt orange/lavender colors is spread all over. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and well struck. The eye appeal is phenomenal! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. Besides the Eliasberg sale, the only time this coin has ever sold at auction was eleven years ago when this coin brought $166,750.00 and we’ve seen other significant coins from that time period sell for 3-5 times as much today. The Coronet Collector purchased this coin via private treaty for a sum in excess of $500,000.00. An 1893-O in gem was the one coin that had eluded him for nearly a decade. This is a far rarer date and grade than you might realize. Good luck! This coin is being sold with no reserve. Certification Number 28286118 PCGS # 7225
