Lot Title: 1903-S AU, cleaned.
Description: Booming mint luster remains prevalent across this entire coin, and there are no noticeable handling or circulation marks. Some cloudy areas on the obverse and a milky overall haze attenuate the presence of hairlined areas, but it is apparent that this coin has seen a mild cleaning. The overall net grade is AU-50, and many collectors would be pleased to obtain an example of 1903-S this nice at that grade level.

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.

Low Estimate: $1,500.00
High Estimate: $1,700.00

1903-S ANACS XF-45.
Buy the coin not the holder, and when you do, realize that this 1903-S in ANACS XF-45 is exactly as nice as a dollar at that grade would be in any slab. Sparkling luster darts through the peripheral...

1903-S PCGS VF-35.

1903-S PCGS XF-40.
