Lot 1806
1855-C $2.50 Liberty. NGC graded AU-58. Mostly untoned. A still lustrous coin with richly imbued reddish golden color that graces the frosty surfaces. Nicely struck for the date which tends to be extremely weak at the centers; indeed, about as fine as this date is ever found with only minor soft detail in the hair braid below the coronet as well as the usual rounded form of the eagle's legs and claws on the reverse. Charlotte Mint, after much huffing and puffing, produced only 3,677 coins this year, a tiny number. Pop 13; 10 finer.
Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000.
