Lot 1481
1838-D. NGC AU Details, improperly cleaned. Light even toning and quite pleasing. We note some very minor marks and faint hairlines. Only 20,583 minted of which merely 275 examples are estimated to have survived. The entire production was from a single die pair, thus just one variety is known. In the far-flung numismatic community it is believed that only five or six survivors can be characterized as Mint State, this according to the research of Douglas Winter. The presently offered coin eclipses many marginal ones that we have seen offered in the past (PCGS # 8178) .
Estimated Value $1,100 - 1,200.
The William H & Beuelaress K. Helem Collection.
