Description
Rare K-9 1855 Wass Molitor Fifty
Details of XF
1855 $50 Wass Molitor Fifty Dollar--Re-Engraved, Polished--NGC
Details. XF. K-9, R.5. The massive Wass Molitor fifty dollar
gold coins are among the most coveted large-scale Territorial gold
issues, and examples are rare regardless of condition. Grading this
Wass Molitor fifty must have been a challenge, as the extensive
re-engraving on Liberty's hair affects the level of visible detail
on that side, and the polishing of the yellow-gold surfaces has
effaced any luster clues. Judging by the remaining definition on
the reverse, however, XF Details seems appropriate. A coin well
worth considering for collectors who might consider the issue
unobtainable otherwise.
