Lot 1103
1846-D $5 Liberty. D over D. NGC graded MS-60. Some mint luster still evident. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 125 to 150 pieces of this issue are thought to have lived to tell the tale in all grades, and in Uncirculated condition authorities suggest as few as 10 or 12 examples exist. With a boldly double-cut mintmark, this example, quite possibly on your wish list, has nice lustrous surfaces, shifting to a satiny appearance on the devices and near the peripheries. A number of inconsequential marks in the fields and a few minor imperfections in the denticles are noted. Pop 2; 3 in 61; 1 in 63; 1 in 64; 1 in 66. (PCGS # 8229) .
Estimated Value $8,000 - 9,000.
