Lot Title:

1866 AU.

Description:
|
Unquestionably a business-strike example, rather than a more common "proof", the grade is determined more by surface quality than by actual wear. Luster breaks cannot be detected, but just enough handling marks, including a tiny scrape at the northwest indentation of the star, demonstrate a very short stint in circulation.
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.
