Gem $1750 New April 13! Exquisite Eye Appeal, Gem Original, Former New Jersey Collection Auction Purchase. How I enjoy handling differentiated early halves. This lot returns from an anonymous client after being purchased at the March 2023 New Jersey Collection Auction. When first offered, Len Augburger described the piece as follows, "Lustrous steely centers lead toward colorful rims, and the eye appeal of this late-date Bust half is stunning. Intense blue patina fills the stars and reverse legend, while an interior band of maroon toning surrounds Liberty and the eagle. The luster is exceptional for the grade level and penetrates even the thick skin at the edges. The images do not completely convey the in-hand aesthetic appeal of this GFRC-rated Gem piece, and we expect competitive bidding. O-108, with star 11 recut at three points." This piece would be a super acquisition for those who enjoy and color combined with excellent luster. Housed in a newer NGC holder with edge view insert and the O-108 attribution on the label.
