Lot 1993
1850-C $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-58. A few light marks on the neck. Nicely toned and well struck. Interesting die break at 7:00 reverse edge. In the days before the Charlotte Mint began to expend its surplus energy in weak strikes and miserable looking coins, this 1850-C stands out as a relatively well struck, and decidedly carefully preserve example. It has luster on both sides. It has the right "look" of antiquity and uncleaned originality. Pop 19; 20 finer.
Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,200.
