Lot 3678
1843-O $2.50 Liberty. Small date, crosslet 4. PCGS graded AU-58. Nice and frosty. Lightly toned. In fact, flattering mint frost still in residence, luster that pulsates with yellow-gold to deep warm orange-gold color. All devices were struck with the usual inconsistency of this year by the dies that left elements of the detail soft in places. Most notable are the E in LIBERTY, the hair below this point, and a large section of the eagle from neck to legs including the right claw. Some flattening on the denticles on this side as well (PCGS # 7731) .
Estimated Value $700 - 750.
