Lot Title:
|
1858 AU-50.
|
|
Description:
|
Considerably better details than the grade indicates, we would say it has AU-58 details, but more importantly, the color is just fabulous. A combination of pumpkin orange, royal blue, and indigo entwine cleverly across each face of this diminutive piece. Only an old scratch on the right side of the obverse star can be called a detraction, resulting in our overall grade of AU-50.
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.

1858 PCGS PF-64.

Extremely heavy die polish dominates the obverse, and it is so extensive as to be blatantly visible without a loupe. The resulting cameo contrast is above average. Accuracy of description requires... |
