1828 Sm.8, Lg. Lets - O.116 R.2 PCGS MS 62 CAC
Oh, my goodness! Perhaps the prettiest coin in the sale. The smooth fields and devices are coated with entrancing shades of rose and turquoise. And check out the detail in Liberty’s curls – including those over and behind the ear. Die lines, left of the date, confirm an early die state. A tick on the chin appears to be of Mint origin, a minute depression in the planchet. This is a showcase coin with runaway potential. Est. $2,500 and up.
