Lot Title:
|
1862 NGC MS-66 CAC.
|
|
Description:
|
41 graded MS-66, 26 higher. The population report indicates some level of scarcity for 1862 in the upper echelon of mint-state, but besides that, as a Civil War date, collectors often gravitate toward the type coins of this era. Very few have earned CAC approval (one is running around with a gold sticker!) for those who like such things, but this coin stands on its own merits anyway. Both sides display utterly delightful sea-green and sunset-gold toning that playfully shines upon energetic, shimmering luster. A strong die clash only adds to the interest. (PCGS# 004381)

1862 PCGS MS-62.

There is no clear motive for denying this petite coin a full MS-63 grade, as the luster and eye appeal are excellent. Even a few trivial hairlines in the fields are of little consequence. ... |

1862 PF-63+.

This glistening specimen is embellished with a hint of golden iridescence. A meager amount of microscopic toning specs and a few faint hairlines are present, but they do not detract from its visual... |
