Lot Title:
|
1868 PCGS PF-63 RB.
|
|
Description:
|
Fully 95% of the obverse mint red color is retained, though the reverse has given up 20% of the original red due mostly to the central area having mellowed significantly. This is a highly reflective proof that gleams with great reflectivity, seemingly suggestive of a better grade, thought it must be noted that numerous wispy hairlines can be seen between the shield's vertical stripes. The tops of "68" in the date are nicely repunched.
