Lot 1909
$2.50 Classic Head. 1839-C. ANACS graded MS-60. Slightly prooflike on the obverse, and the delicate mirror surfaces show a few ticks from handling. Apparently coined by a rusted die, with some evidence noted on Liberty's cheek. Identifiable by a short series of marks between the first star and Liberty's lower neck. Fairly sharp, but a trace of weakness is present on the high points. Rare, and very difficult to locate in full mint state grades.
Estimated Value $13,000 - 15,000.
