Lot 926

1849 Mormon $2.50 Gold. As with all examples, the obverse exhibits convex striking, however, the central "eye" is better defined than usual. The surfaces contain a scattered bag mark or two, otherwise, a lovely problem-free example with lustre still adhering about the pheriphery. This denomination is considerably rarer than the $5 Mormon issue. Breen's estimate for mintage is a mere 3,560 pieces. Very rare low population coin as NGC has graded but two in this state of preservation and none higher. NGC graded AU-55.

 
Unsold
