Lot Title:
|
1813 AU details/cleaned.
|
|
Description:
|
It is lightly marked here and there, but there is still decent probability for successful certification of this 1813 half-eagle, since some leniency must be advocated for these early gold pieces. The assigned grade suggests that the surfaces have been lightly cleaned, and that is the case, but the effect of some sporadic hairlines is not really all that distracting. Fortunately, quite a bit of the original luster persists. A sharp strike and lack of stains or major abrasions additionally benefit the overall appeal. (PCGS# 008116)
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.

BD-1, Mintage: 95,428. BD-1 is often cited as the most available die-marriage within the entire series of early half-eagles. This is fortuitous, since collectively, the "capped head to left"... |

Very good original surface quality beams with a hint of greenish iridescence and a prodigious supply of attractive mint luster. This is a gorgeous type coin, bearing only the faintest circulation rub... |
