Lot Title:
|
1799 Stars 8x5 (B-23, BB-159, R.4). VF.
|
|
Description:
|
Outstanding visual appeal is provided by an intriguing mixture of indigo, teal and slate-blue patina overlaid by peach-grey devices, a toning pattern that holds true on both sides. Struck slightly off-center to the southeast, dentilation is nonetheless complete. This coin is remarkably free from surface abrasions for the VF grade. B-23 is a somewhat scarcer die marriage in the Bolender series.
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.
