Lot Title: 1940 Proof Set in a Capital Plastics holder
Lot Number: 206
Description: Bert Davies Collection. It is typically the case that the silver strikes “steal the show” with regards to early issue United States proof sets. However, this five-piece 1940 proof set offers up a dynamic duo of terrifically toned issues that supersede the appeal of the silver strikes. Both the Jefferson nickel and the Lincoln cent boast incredible toning schemes that are impossible to ignore. It would not be unrealistic to expect these pieces to be visiting a grading service in the near future (ck).
Estimate: $675-$775

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
