Lot Title: 1856 MS-63 BN.
Description: Gorgeous coffee-brown patina shows interruption only by a couple of small greyish splashes. Thoroughly delightful flowline texture in the fields identifies an aging pair of dies for this "upright 56". (PCGS# 001919)

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.

Low Estimate: $270.00
High Estimate: $300.00
