Description
NGC 1893 Columbian MS 66. The identical twin to lot 7785, except this specimen is dated 1893, the second and final year of issue. Obviously this coin was selected to match and complement the appearance of the forementioned 1892, as the surfaces are deeply reflective (although, for some reason, the holder does not specify "PL," as does the 1892). The business strike is full and sharp, characteristic of an early impression from the dies, and the nuances of toning are virtually an exact copy with shimmering cobalt-blue, magenta, and violet colors present on both sides. Both of these coins should be purchased by the same bidder so they may remain together as premium examples of this extremely popular issue. Ex: Starr, (Stack's 10/92), lot 475.
