Lot Title:

1850-C AU-50 Lightly Cleaned.
|
|
Description:
|
A scant 9,148 is the recorded mintage for this Charlotte Branch Mint issue. Although ascribed as lightly cleaned, it exhibits a wonderful orange-gold aspect with some peripheral luster still present. Some contact ticks are seen, as should be expected for this grade level, but none are visually obtrusive. Even though there is slight softness in detail on the central portions of the design motifs, it is exceptionally well struck overall. The shrewd bidder will take this particular opportunity to acquire this rather unappreciated rare date.
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.

Population statistics affirm scarcity of the 1850-C in high grades, as PCGS has graded 15 at AU-58, and only 40 higher. A quick glance immediately brings to bear the bright lemon-yellow color common... |
