Description

1868 AU 53. A scarce coin in all grades with an original mintage of only 10,630 pieces. The 1868 becomes a significant collector item at the AU grade level with very few coins known above AU 50. The fields of this piece are bright and still exhibit considerable luster. The surfaces have a rich reddish-coppery patina with several more noticeable abrasions. On the obverse a contact mark is noted on Liberty's cheek. Both sides are peppered with numerous, small abrasions in the fields, none of which are of singular importance.
