Lot Title:
|
1853 VF-35+.
|
|
Description:
|
This is a very early date Double Eagle that is totally original. There are a few marks on the obverse, but they are commensurate for the grade. Original mint luster adorns the protected areas on both the obverse and reverse.
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.
