With the high relief pcgs pr69 just selling a couple of months ago- maybe pcgs will do another contest for what this rarity will bring ps- cant wait to see the other 3 coins!
You just have to wonder how this coin was saved/preserved right off the screw press so long ago and how it eventually wound up in Plastic. Anyone have any guesses as to what it will sell for?

Jay Parrino brought this one to Long Beach many years ago. He also had a SP68 RED wreath for sale at the same time, all from the Naftzger collection via Eric Streiner and previously some of them from Dr Sheldon by way of the ANS (1946 swaparoo).
How much of the Cardinal collection is being sold? I saw at least some of it at an ANA in either Boston or Chicago (can't remember which) and what a display it was. From a selfish point of view, it's a shame to see any of it being sold since Cardinal has been kind enough to share images of his collection here and on displays at shows.

Well I was going to buy it. But since I was dropped off the mailing list and can't afford a catalog, I'm out.
