Description
1848-C Five Dollar, AU Details
Smooth and Appealing
1848-C $5 -- Cleaned -- NGC Details. AU. Winter-1. This is a
well-detailed piece with light wear and generally smooth and
attractive surfaces. A loupe reveals horizontal hairlines on each
side that NGC calls attention to, although the coin has since
retoned an olive-gold hue reminiscent of what is seen on a lot of
original Charlotte half eagles. Some bits of dirt cling to the most
protected crevices, not wiped away by the cleaning. A collectible
example of this better Charlotte issue, which is scarcer than its
mintage of more than 64,000 coins would suggest.(Registry values: P4)
