详细说明

A really neat, high quality CHOICE AU example of the first year of issue of the long lived Christian Gobrecht design. The present coin is so high quality you will mistake it at first glance for an even higher grade; while we do not guarantee that it will upgrade, the eye appeal is that of at least an AU55. Just the most subtle contact and friction are noted with the aid of a glass. Both sides have a wonderful original deep golden hue with some light rose and olive-gold accents. Well struck and nicely preserved, the eye appeal is fantastic for an AU! PCGS 17, NGC 28, CAC 2. No PCGS/CAC coin has ever sold in auction. This date is remarkably scarce and we think the Collectors Universe value of $1,900 does not reflect the rarity of CAC-approved examples. Worthy of a strong bid from the date or type collector. Cert. Number 83868442 PCGS # 8191
