Lot Title:
|
1847-D VF+ Detail Cleaned.
|
Description:
|
It is tough to find these Georgia Mint Half Eagles, regardless of grade. This specimen was cleaned, but not harshly enough for it to be disqualified as a respectable collectible. In fact, it is still quite pleasing really, and you would need a lot of patience if you plan on obtaining this date with any more detail.
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.
