 Choice $23500 New March 30! CAC Condition Census, Near-Gem Original, Gerry Fortin Collection.. "Condition Census", a term credited to Dr. William Sheldon, arrives at a coin value through listing the top five survivors in sequential order. The 1872 Carson City issue is the most frequently encountered within the 1871-CC though 1874-CC date span. However, choice survivors are very rare without a single Mint State specimen with CAC green bean. Darker violet-gray shades are noted on this naturally toned example with olive orange-gray noted at the reverse borders. Well preserved surfaces are undisturbed and entirely pleasing. The strike is typical of the issue as variability is the rule. CAC reports 17 approved in all grades with a single AU58 finer. The CAC price guide suggests $17,300 as fair value which is a conservative number given the ongoing collector demand. Acquired via private treaty during late 2023. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder with CAC approval. PCGS #4657.
