Lot Title:
|
1838-D XF-40.
|
|
Description:
|
A representative from the first year for both the denomination and the type from this producing mint. Original color and surfaces are noted, along with a shallow scratch in front of Liberty's profile. Only 20,583 specimens were struck of this single variety, of which only a few hundred are extant. Although somewhat soft in the central portion of Liberty's profile, it still exhibits above average design definition.
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.
