Legend Reports Active Regency 37 Sale
April 6, 2020
The most recent Legend Rare Coin Auctions Regency 37 was held in the company’s New Jersey offices because of the coronavirus and the stay at home orders. The auction was handled as a live webcast only, with no floor bidders as all bids were either placed by email or telephone, and Legend was happy to report that the sale was very successful. According to Greg Cohen, Senior Numismatist at Legend Rare Coin Auctions, “This proved, yet again, that the demand for rare coins from collectors is deep, and despite the uncertain times, this demand can be insatiable when the coins are fresh and high quality.”
The top two sellers in this sale were the $50 Gold Pan-Pac Round and Octagonal, both certified by PCGS as MS64 and also have the CAC approval. The Round realized $114,563 and the Octagonal $99,875. The original mintage of the Round was 483 with 39 coin certified in MS64 CAC. The Octagonal had a mintage of 645 with 49 certified in MS64 CAC. Both of these coins were better than average for the grade according to several active bidders. Below are some of the other highlights from the Legend Rare Coin Auction Regency 37 Sale....

ANA Preview of Rarity Part II: 1913 Liberty Nickel Takes Center Stage
One of the top attractions from this Stack’s Bowers sale will surely be the 1913 Liberty Head Nickel graded PCGS PR66 with the CAC approval and is the finest known coin. It comes to auction from the family of Dr. William Morton-Smith and is the very same coin previously owned by Louis Eliasberg, Sr. This was the first coin to achieve the million dollar price tag back in 1996 when it sold for $1,485,000 in a Bowers & Merena Sale. With just five coins total certified by PCGS and NGC, opportunities to acquire a rarity like this are rare indeed. This will certainly be the centerpiece of the Rarities Night session at this ANA event....
