Impressive Collections Anchor Legend’s Latest Regency Sale
Legend Rare Coin Auctions (LRCA) is proud to present the 24th Regency Auction in conjunction with the ever-popular PCGS Members’ Show on the evening of Thursday, December 14 at Caesar’s in Las Vegas.

The remaining lots contain hand selected coins from a number of numismatic enthusiasts. There are a number of finest and tied for finest-graded examples, key dates, beautifully preserved type coins and rare patterns that will delight any collector, advanced and novice alike. The sale features the JBR Collection, a PCGS Registry Set of Carson City Morgan dollars, and the AMG Collection of Proof Barber Dimes, which is currently among the top PCGS sets on the Registry, and all are CAC approved.
