Scarce First-Year Issue

1840-C $2 1/2 MS60 NGC. Variety 1, the only die pair for this issue. This first-year issue is actually much scarcer in mint condition than the population data indicates, with inflated numbers caused by numerous resubmissions. This Uncirculated example was struck on a slightly defective planchet that shows a couple of shallow planchet depressions in the center of the obverse. Softly struck on the obverse, but much sharper on the reverse.(Registry values: P2)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25GB, PCGS# 7718, Greysheet# 8333)
