Lot Title: 1825/3/2 B-2 AU-55 Details, Artificially Toned.
Description: It is unclear as to why this coin was artificially toned as there appears to be none of the unsightly scratches or hairlines that would typically be hidden by such treatment. Despite the issue, nobody can question the outstanding, original luster that prominently figures in to the overall eye appeal. Despite the distraction of the rather outlandish colors, this is a pretty attractive coin that could benefit greatly from proper conservation.

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: $2,000.00

1825/4 (B-2, E Stamp) NGC AU details/stained.
NGC's disclaimer indicates "stained", but a more cynical observer might consider the weird, dark-black gunk to be some sort of old residue that may have mildly corroded the underlying surface. It's...

1825/4/2 (B-2) ANACS MS-63.
Intricate details ensure the desirable nature of this large-planchet quarter, since it is tough to find sharply struck examples for use as type or in date sets. Almond-tan patina has settled over the...

1825/4/2 (B-2) AU-53.
Examining the date for attribution, one quickly notices that the inner loops of the "8" are recut on the inside, and the "5" is clearly punched over SOMEthing underneath. Researchers state that it is...

1825/3/2 B-2 VF-35.
Probably grades fully Extremely Fine, though there is not quite enough mint luster remaining on the obverse to qualify the grade in this cataloger’s humble opinion. Hints of luster appear on the...
