Lot 1718
1888-S. NGC graded MS-63. A very lustrous example in pinkish color gold. What is most in full view when we examine this coin is its thick, rolling mint luster -- it swirls over each side unhindered by deep abrasions and free of even a trace of deep toning. A coin of outstanding beauty and importance to the Liberty gold collector. In days of old, the luster was enough to determine a coin's status. But today, just as important is the strike: there is no deviation in the sharp relief seen, not even in the centers of the coin, and all stars are sharp (PCGS # 9009) .
Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,000.
