Lot 682
1863-S $2.50 Liberty. NGC graded AU-58. An extremely rare coin in this grade, and nearly impossible to find better. The combined PCGS and NGC Population Reports show just 5 coins have been graded in Mint State, while 13 have been graded as AU-58 between the two services. Examination with a glass notes minor hairlines and the usual handling marks, including a minor scratch below the denomination on the reverse. Boldly struck and without any signs of weakness. An important offering for the date collector, and it will likely be years before its equal or a better example of this date is offered for sale.
Estimated Value $7,000 - 7,500.
