Lot 3701
1853-D $2.50 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-61. Lovely golden toning on both sides. Nice eye appeal. Only 3,178 struck. Pop 4; 1 in 62 as best at PCGS. Creamy gold surfaces eddy and churn with almost blinding red to apricot-tinted golden luster. Nothing daunts the fresh appearance of this one. The eye is charmed by its color. With the design of the devices, the dies left only a partly bold impression behind with some ordinary weakness or imprecision only at the centers (PCGS # 7768) .
Estimated Value $14,000 - 16,000.
