Lot Title:
|
1855-O PCGS Genuine (code 92/XF details/cleaned.)
|
|
Description:
|
Substantial majority of the fine details still remain, indicating a limited amount of time in circulation. Sharpness is therefore XF-40 if not better, especially considering the typical New Orleans strike. The surfaces are a little hazy from having been cleaned, but the negative effects are not dramatic, since there are not too many obvious hairlines. (PCGS# 008264)

1855-O XF, reverse scratch.
|
|
Surprising definition defies the fact that the 1855-O half-eagle tends to come poorly struck. A glimpse of mint luster can be enjoyed with careful examination, but this will also reveal a thin scratch... |
