Lot Title:
|
1841-C PCGS F-12.
|
|
Description:
|
Exquisite, vintage surface quality benefits from just about the most ideal shade of olive-gold color imaginable, and to the unaided eye, the surface texture is almost perfectly smooth, with few of the digs and dings that always seem to affect circulated Charlotte gold. The date, mintmark, and LIBERTY are bold as can be despite heavy wear. Deeper bronze-gold toning around the finer details is complemented by subtle peppermint-blue iridescence, and that brings out a nice three-dimensional visual quality. Closer inspection reveals a limited series of shallow, old pin scratches paralleling the bridge of Liberty's nose, but they are too worn and toned to impede appreciation. (PCGS# 007721)

1841-C XF/cleaned.
