Description

NGC 1842 MS 64. Lilac toned, with golden highlights and steel-blue colors near the rims. Struck a bit weakly on the stars and on the eagle's head and right shoulder, but sharp otherwise. The underlying surfaces are brilliant and show some prooflike tendencies. A couple of light marks in the right obverse field are well-hidden by the toning. This is an important condition-rarity, as none have been graded higher by either NGC or PCGS. In MS 64, NGC has graded five examples and PCGS has graded six (we suspect that some of these may have been attempted crossovers or regrades). Anyone familiar with this series will immediately recognize this as an opportunity to acquire one of the finest examples known of the date.
