1897'O' Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated
|
VERY CH BU |
$2,200.00 |
- and just on the cusp of a Gem designation. In fact, were it not for a trivial obverse scuff on Liberty's jaw, this velvet-like beauty would easily be a full Gem. Needle-sharp, glowing surfaces are accented by a wisp of delicate lilac toning. An extremely scarce date, especially at this lofty quality level. |

AU |
$8,500.00 |
About Uncirculated. Substantial overall lustre complements a well detailed strike that includes a particularly vivid overdate. An obverse edge nick at 10:00 has been skillfully filed to minimize its visibility. This wartime re-use of a previous year's die went undiscovered until 1937, by which time Mint State examples were excessively rare. The late Walter Breen estimated that perhaps... more |
