Lot 1177
1839-C $2.50 Classic Head. Sharpness of VF-20 but solder on rim and cleaned. The solder on the rim has been carefully removed but telltale signs of metal movement are noted over some of the reverse letters. Possibly repaired in the reverse fields, as there appears to be faint swirl marks under the eagle's wings and in the surrounding areas. Inspection mandatory as the coin still has a nice appearance. Popular for the bold obverse mintmark above the date.
