1928 PCGS MS-63. 1928 PCGS MS-63.
Lot Title: 1928 PCGS MS-63.
Description: Compelling patina instantly identifies this as a very original gold coin, with infrequent and widely scattered tiny specks of carbon across the obverse and occasional grease patches seen in the fields. A vintage appearance is further promoted by the lovely old-gold tone that contrasts nicely with underlying apricot highlights. Surface marks are a touch more prevalent than expected across the reverse, but the grade of this coin is well sustained by the impeccable original surface quality.
Low Estimate: $650.00
High Estimate: $750.00

1928 PCGS MS-63 CAC.

1928 PCGS MS-63.
The grade of this coin might be a study in small contrasts, since the luster is certainly superior, but the number of scattered handling marks may exceed the norm. And while the strike is routinely...

1928 PCGS MS-63.
A few more tick marks than typical can be seen across each side, though the luster is unmistakably superior to that of the average incused Indian. Impeccable peach-gold color.
