Description

1868 25C MS 62 SEGS. Briggs 1-A. Despite a suitable endowment of milky-gray patina throughout, this coin still evidences bold contrast between its richly frosted devices and deeply reflective fields. While the novice numismatist would simply dismiss this piece as a proof specimen, the absence of repunching on the 1 confirms its business strike status. Nicely impressed and quite attractive at first glance, the surfaces reveal numerous scattered hairlines that allude to possible mishandling. Nonetheless, a scarce issue that is most often encountered in proof format.
