Description

1875 XF 40 Holed and Plugged. The repair was done at the top of the obverse, in a less than expert hand. The surfaces have a flat, pebbly appearance, presumably caused by the coin's stint as a jewelry piece. One can only imagine the surprise on the owner's face upon learning that the pretty gold coin hanging around their neck was one of the rarest of all U.S. gold coins. One of only 400 business strikes.
