Lot Title: 1893-O PCGS MS-64 CAC.
Description: 1893-O is recognizable as a better date in any grade, though it never approaches true "key" status. A parade of positive attributes shown by this appealing MS-64 example include simmering luster, original surfaces and definition much sharper than normally expected of a New Orleans strike. The obverse lower right features glowing orange hue, with the balance of the coin vanilla-grey and free from distracting marks. Stronger luster would be required to qualify for an upgrade, yet the coin will still readily pass muster on its own merits. (PCGS# 004801)
