Gem $645 New April 15! Variety 1, Gem Original, Superb Eye Appeal, Port Matilda Collection. Consignor Price Reduction. An impressive 1886 Variety 1 proof strike with gem eye appeal. Unfortunately, the GFRC illustrations do not fairly present this lot's intense mirrors and sky blue coloration under a bright light. The reverse is particularly notable for its blue center surrounded by golden brown between the wreath and rim. A careful 10x check of the fields confirmed this lot's gem status as the surfaces are entirely hairline free. Overall strike is needle sharp. CAC population stands at 12 at the certified grade with a price guide value of $700. In my opinion, the Port Matilda consignor has fairly priced this offering. Housed in PCGS Gen 3.1 (1993-1998) old green holder with CAC approval.
