Description

PCGS 1860-D XF 45. This date has long been celebrated as one of the scarcer, key dates of the series. There were only 1,566 pieces struck in 1860 at Dahlonega, just prior to the Civil War. The characteristic trait of this date is the coins were always weakly struck on low quality planchets. This description may be a bit severe for this piece, as it is very presentable, but certainly not perfect. The UN of UNITED is virtually obliterated, the date on the reverse is mushy, and there is also a small planchet crease at 10 o'clock on the reverse. The coin is a deep, coppery gold color and pleasing to the eye.
