Lot 1524
1850-C $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-53. A pleasing untoned example. The 1850-C has been regarded as a major rarity in Mint State, this despite its fairly generous mintage of 63,591 pieces. Most extant examples grade VF or EF, occasionally AU, but only rarely Mint State. The present AU53 coin is in acceptable condition and comes with the usual weak strike on the rims and at the centers as well as field abrasions. Pop 16; 63 finer (PCGS # 8244) .
Estimated Value $1,800 - 1,900.
