1824 Recut Date -  O.110 R.2 PCGS MS 61 OGH

From the collection of Jim Ross.  Housed in a PCGS first generation “rattler” capsule.  Not many of these survive.  The coin is simply wonderful.  The antique grey patina took decades to accrue.  Perhaps it was stored in a leather pouch as a family memento.  The luster, though muted by “time-capsule” storage, is complete and undisturbed.  Preview this relic of the early Mint with reverence.  Est. $2,000 to $3,000.
