Description

1840-C $2 1/2 --Improperly Cleaned----NGC. AU Details. Variety 1, the only known variety. An important, rare C-mint from the first year of the new Gobrecht design. Only 60-85 pieces are believed known in all grades. This piece was lightly cleaned but is only slightly bright as a result. Curiously, the centers are better struck than the peripheries. A few light marks are scattered about, consistent with the grade, but there are none of the usually seen planchet problems.
