Lot Title:
|
1911-D Weak D. AU, solder on rim.
|
|
Description:
|
At certain viewing angles, the "D" mintmark sudden flashes into view, though doubters will find that the knifelike edge aligned at the northeast rim is also diagnostic and confirms attribution. A curious greyish discoloration at 5:00 of the obverse rim and corresponding at 1:00 of the reverse rim suggest removal of a foreign substance, possibly solder, but there is no other evidence of a removed mount or bezel.
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.
