Lot Title:
|
1847-C ICG VF-35.
|
|
Description:
|
Mintage: 84,151. The fact that the entire emission of 1857-C half-eagles came off a single pair of dies helps explain why so many appear flatly struck, even in a better middle grade like this. Spectacular, fully original patina clings to the entire coin, embraced by darker olive-gold accents in the protected areas. A delightful, vintage example of this popular branch-mint type coin. (PCGS# 008233)
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.
