Description

1852-D AU 55. Unusually lustrous, and a candidate for one of the finest examples known of the issue, but with an obvious shear or filing of the rim at 10 o'clock on the obverse. To underscore the importance of this piece, we point to the single mint state piece graded by PCGS so far (4/94), and that the best circulated example graded by PCGS is only a single AU 53. NGC has graded 4 AUs and none in mint state.

Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 4.18 grams
AGW: 0.13oz
