Lot Title: 1828 12 Stars (C-2) NGC AU-55.
Description: Auto Mark Collection. C-2 commands a strong premium in upper grades due in part to a separate listing in the Red Book. Deep ebony patina endows the surfaces for this example, yet the details retain pleasing sharpness in light of NGC's commercial AU-55 grade. Flowline luster lingers between the stars, and but a couple of small contact points can be found in front of Liberty's nose. (PCGS# 035264)
Low Estimate: $300.00

1828 12 Stars (C-2, R.2). PCGS AU-58.

1828 12 Stars (C-2, R.2, die state I). PCGS MS-64 BN.
The whimsically blundered "12 stars" obverse occurs with only one die marriage: C-2. "TES OF AM" are boldly repunched, and Breen calls this the "perfect die" obverse and "very rare". Blue-velvet...
255The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$240.00
1828 12 Stars. AU-55.
The surface quality of this "little sister" is extraordinary, with hard, brown surfaces and plenty of exquisite, original cartwheel luster seen on both sides. Under proper lighting conditions, the...
237The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$550.00
1828 12 Stars C-2, R-1. MS-60 BN.
Glossy mahogany surfaces amplify the visual appeal of this die cutter's error variety. A meager number of ticks noticed with a glass, but no unsightly marks or blemishes. Well struck for an issue...
