Description

1862 MS 62. A visually stunning example of this date, and certainly one of the finest examples available today. This is an exceptionally clean and frosty example, with a reverse that will amaze. There are simply not enough nice things to say about this coin. Here is a coin with gem eye appeal, deep mint frost, and a rarity in this condition that is unparallelled. A glance at the PCGS Population Report indicates that only 2 examples have been graded in mint state (4/94), and both of those are MS 62. We suspect that both of those (if indeed they are not the same coin) are in very strong hands. Thus, this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a top-notch example of a scarcer date and a true, condition rarity.
