Lot 2070
1844-C $2.50 Liberty. NGC graded EF-40. Only 11,622 struck. Untoned. A few old marks. Scarce. The Charlotte specialist will wish to consider this opportunity carefully and bid strongly. (To reiterate what we have said on other occasions, population numbers should be taken with a grain of salt as such numbers may not represent discrete specimens.)
For those engaged in studying a coin's die characteristics, the 1844 date logotype is deeply punched into the die, and set far left. The top of the 1 touches the base of the neck truncation, while the lower left serif of the 1 touches a dentil. Pop 9; 63 finer (PCGS # 7735) .
Estimated Value $1,600 - 1,700.
