Lot 1957
1872-S. NGC graded AU-53. Similar in overall rarity to the more highly regarded 1872-CC, the 1872-S, just 36,400 pieces struck, is an issue that has largely disappeared through commercial use and/or export. One of the few survivors in numismatic hands, this lightly worn AU is bold-to-sharp in strike with minimal rub and only a couple of notable milling marks on the obverse portrait. Attractive orange-gold and pink-gold toning overall, and conditionally rare for the issue. Pop 25; 30 finer, 22 in 55, 5 in 58, 3 in 61. (PCGS # 8327) .
Estimated Value $2,600 - 2,700.
