Lot Title:
|
1811 Small 5 AU details/altered surfaces.
|
|
Description:
|
Olive-gold patina drapes the entire coin and shows some darker grey accents around the devices. PCGS mentions "AU details", and for certain this is a strongly detailed type coin, with marvelous sharpness and significant luster remaining, especially on the reverse. The "altered surf." may reference an oily film that seems to layer the obverse, as well as a subtle, slightly off-color stain in the obverse left field, but whatever the true nature of the offense, it must be minor. (PCGS# 008109)
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.

A sorely misguided attempt was made to eradicate some old scratches or graffiti from the obverse left field, and perhaps Liberty's cheek as well. Now, those areas have odd texture, and all original... |
