Lot Title:
|
1842-D Small Date. F details/cleaned/rim dents.
|
Description:
|
The rims have previously been dinged, and subsequently smoothed (probably filed), while the whole coin has also been lightly polished, perhaps to lessened the impact of surface disturbances. Fewer than 60,000 half-eagles were coined at Dahlonega in 1842, of which the majority remaining are well circulated. (PCGS# 008210)
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.

1842-D Small Date. PCGS XF-45.

The "small date" obverse is more common than the "large date", but as a type coin, one can never consider a handsome, attractive and original 1842-D half-eagle "common". This example displays the... |
