Lot Title:
|
1847 Coronet eagle AU-55
|
Description:
|
The ready appeal of this early Coronet gold coin is augmented by the prooflike fields that plainly display a lot of parallel die polish. A remarkably bold example as a result, and one that has been carefully and handsomely preserved. It is not so easy to locate unmolested early Coronet double-eagles, and the present coin offers considerable attraction in that regard.
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.
