Lot Title:

1827 (N-7, R.3) MS-60/scratched.
|
|
Description:
|
The condition census for 1827 N-7, an R.3 Newcomb variety is not that far above the technical aspirations of this smooth, brown example. In addition, perusal of past auctions suggests that many examples are afflicted with environmental problems, but that is not the case for this example. Indeed, discernible luster and razor sharp details indicate that this coin is at or very near mint state. A scattering of handling marks probably put it into the slider category, but of more concern is a grouping of lengthy scratches in the lower left field. The reverse is much better preserved.
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.

The thin die crack penetrating the left side stars indicates a late die state, yet sharpness seems to have suffered little, since this is a solidly struck coin. Quality benefits further from... |

If the obverse had as much red as the reverse, this coin would be designated Red Brown. It has wonderful detail, no distractions, and a ton of eye appeal. This is a must have coin for your type set. |
