1853 Arrows & Rays. AU-58. 1853 Arrows & Rays. AU-58.
Lot Title: 1853 Arrows & Rays. AU-58.
Description: A delicate golden iridescence graces this one year type issue's velvety surfaces. Just the slightest trace of wear is detected on its highest design elements. A few ticks here and there are noted, plus a couple meandering die breaks below Liberty are viewed as well. An original and well-detailed specimen.

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: $390.00
High Estimate: $500.00
