Item Description

Great original surfaces on this popular date. Steely, crusty grays and sharp detail. Very nice. Greysheet (the wholesale price, that is) is $750, but I can offer this coin a bit lower than that.

As indicated on the label, it is WB-101. Wiley did some amazing research on this date, identifying multiple die marriages under WB-101; I'm not sure which one this is, but a diligent researcher might be able to identify it. Bugert talks about this in his meticulously-researched Registers books, many of which are now available for free PDF download at http://lsccweb.org/BillBugertBooks/BillBugertBooks.php . Seated Half fans will have fun downloading and reading through these great resources.

The PCGS certification verification page can be found here - https://www.pcgs.com/cert/29940668 . This coin has a population of 1 - it's the only one in the AU50 grade with the WB-101 designation that has ever been graded by PCGS.

Shipping and insurance included.
