Lot Title:
|
1912-D PCGS MS-64.
|
|
Description:
|
The Nickel-To-A-Doughnut Collection. Softly brilliant overall, the entire surface features an intriguing two-toned "mystic" effect that alternately presents salmon-grey and lavender-blue overtones, depending on viewing angle. Liberty's portrait displays virtually no contact marks aside from a thin tick above her ear, and the reverse seems entirely clear of contact. Although not fully struck, the details certainly surpass the level normally seen for 1912-D. Just a minuscule patch at the lower right corner of Liberty's neck presents the only visible upgrade deterrent. (PCGS# 003874)

Brock Megran Collection. Perilously close to a full strike, the details look exceptionally well-defined for 1912-D, an issue that often shows uneven strike quality. Superb tin-grey patina languishes... |
