Description

1838-D AU 50. Struck in a rich, original, orange-gold color, with reddish tinges on the highpoints. One of only 20,583 pieces struck. To date (4/94), NGC has graded no mint state examples, AUs are represented by 1 AU 50, 1 AU 53, 12 AU 55, and one AU 58. PCGS has graded 5 AU 50s, 1 AU 53, 6 AU 55s, 5 AU 58s, and 1 MS 60, none higher. Thus, this lovely coin may be seen as an above average example of this tougher date.
