Choice $7000 New March 30! Near-Gem Original, Newtown Collection.. Silver-gray centers lead toward subtle rose and gold patina at the rims, which exhibit scattered crust on both sides. Frosty luster is ample for the grade, and a light source immediately activates the near-Gem flash. WB-8, with recut stars to the left and a small mintmark. This is an early die state without advanced die cracks. Stars to the left are soft, while the reverse detail is excellent throughout. CAC has approved 29 examples, with three coins in MS64 and a single piece finer, at MS65. PCGS notes two coins in MS65 and one example finer at MS66. The CAC price guide indicates a value of $6,600 in MS64 and $15,100 in MS65. Ex. Heritage (October 2018, lot 3055), at $5,040. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval. PCGS #6324.
