Lot Title:
|
1848-C circulated/impaired.
|
Description:
|
Evidence of an old cleaning is not particularly harsh, as time has recovered a substantial portion of the original appearance. Only minor hairlines need be noted now, along with mild haze on the surfaces -- part of the natural oxidization process. Details are at the upper XF range, with the only notable mark being two small ticks on the obverse right rim. (PCGS# 007750)
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.

1848-C XF details/peeling/lamination.
