详细说明

Clearly above average for an 1861. It is also totally original! The mirrors are deep, clear, clean, and offer strong reflection. A moderate crescent/circle of royal blue hugs the peripheries on both sides and opens into deep champagne centers. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have full strikes. The eye appeal is fantastic! Only 1,000 were minted, but it is believed about half were melted due to poor sales. PCGS 6, NGC 15, CAC 4. Here is a startling fact: prior to this coin selling in our recent auction (yes we bought it) the last one to sell in auction brought $4,370 back in November 2005! PCGS has graded only 6 coins higher. Not an easy date to find in GEM Proof-12 years of none selling via auction is a lifetime! Cert. Number 81473506 PCGS # 5557
