$50 1851 HUMBERT RE 887 PCGS AU55

When we can find these unmolested and not hacked up, we will buy them. This coin is wonderfully ORIGINAL has few marks!

To start, the strike on this heavy beast is fabulous. You do not need a glass to see some of the eagles feathers. While there is wear, its not harsh or in your face. The surfaces have very few ticks and do look clean and even have a slight semi prooflike hint. The color is a totally ORIGINAL deep orange gold. We also LOVE the reverse, it has NO obstructions in the design. Also, all the corners and rims are fine-there is only one very teenie bump and that is it. Clearly, this coin is way above average. It also has awesome eye appeal!

PCGS 6, NGC 12, CAC 2. The last one of these to appear in major public auction was now 3 years ago in 11/08 at Stacks. That coin was a NON CAC and sold for $51,750.00. Prior to that in 2006 one sold for $63,250.00. These do not make many appearances in auction. It has always been our strong opinion these should all be worth $100,000.00 when they look this neat and are devoid of serious problems. Check it out!
