What a great coin! Think about what it must have taken for this coin to survive 153 years in pristine condition. It boggles our minds!

Solid mirrors are better than average. They are super clean, crystal clear, and have a bold reflection.When you twirl the coin the mirrors look like they are a glistening pond of water.Both sides have an even ORIGINAL mix of blue/olive/pale violet/ green/gold/pale tangerine colors that evenly cover all of the surfaces. The reverse is more olive/gold colors. This is NOT a dull or drab coin. Miss Liberty and the details are fully struck and do standout. The eye appeal is fantastic!

1,000 coins were minted, but most were melted due to poor proof set sales at the Mint. The survival rate in GEM is very low. PCGS 2, NGC 16, CAC 6. NO PCGS CAC pieces have ever been sold at auction. An NGC/CAC piece did bring $12,662.00 10/11.

We can’t say enough about this dramatically UNDERvalued date and grade. You hardly ever see any of these and its a pre Civil War era coin-can’t get much more numismatic than that!
