Choice $6400 New October 19! Arrows & Rays, Near Gem Original, A Type Set Offering, Island City Collection.. Generous, frosted luster radiates from the fields of this Arrows and Rays example. The medium skin reveals tannish color in the obverse fields, while the reverse exhibits original pastel patina. The eye appeal is strong, and the next owner will be justifiably proud. This is one of the most popular coins in the U.S. Type series, representing a one-year issue with added design elements. Not even Bill Bugert has attempted to decode the Arrows & Ray die varieties, but this example will be identified by a die crack that joins the tops of UNITED and runs to the rim. CAC has certified 261 coins across all grades, 28 pieces in MS64, and just 12 examples higher. The CAC price guide is $6,750 in MS64, and steeply advances to $20,000 in MS65. Housed in a PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder with CAC approval.
