(About The Images)
1849 AU/cleaned. 1849 AU/cleaned.
Lot Title: 1849 AU/cleaned.
Description: Almond-bisque tone has settled across the surfaces and helps to downplay the hazy effects of an old cleaning. Fortunately, luster was hardly affected by the unfair treatment, as the obverse retains much semi-prooflike appearance and the reverse displays flashy fields. AU details.

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: $525.00

1849 NGC AU-53.
A trifle "scrubby" for the grade of AU-53, with myriad short, sharp hairlines sharing space in the fields with tiny contact marks. Although a little pale overall, a few tidbits of old dirt and grunge...

1849 AU/altered surfaces.
Microgranularity texture of the surfaces suggests that this coin has been whizzed, perhaps in a foolish attempt to lessen the effect of minor handling marks on the reverse. The marks are hardly...

1849 AU/questionable color/porous surfaces.
Considerable eye appeal has been eliminated from what was probably a nice, original coin, though at least some blame rests upon storage in an improper environment. The color is clearly not original,...
