Description

1839 $5 PCGS Genuine. The PCGS number ending in .94 suggests Altered Surfaces as the reason, or perhaps one of the reasons, that PCGS deemed this coin not gradable. In our opinion, this coin has the details of an Unc specimen that has been sea salvaged and has altered surfaces. The luminous yellow-gold surfaces are finely granular, a hallmark of ocean salvage, with additional alterations possible. The strike is razor-sharp.(Registry values: P5, N5)

Note for clients in the European Union: This lot is considered by the European Union to be “investment gold”. We believe that it meets the criteria established in Article 344(1), point (2) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC and thus should be exempt from import VAT regardless of the selling price. Any questions or concerns about VAT should be addressed to your accountant or local tax authority.
