1857'S' Brilliant Uncirculated or finer. A meticulous strike results in partial obverse wire rim,...1857'S' Brilliant Uncirculated or finer. A meticulous strike results in partial obverse wire rim, and the glowing yellow surfaces are amazingly free of troubling marks. Mint records show a relatively small mintage of 69,200, only a small percentage of which survives for today's collectors. The 10-year Dannreuther-Garrett auction record shows only 23 appearances of this desirable date, of which only four were in any Mint State grade. The present coin, with its magnificent visual qualities, would be the equal of any of these. This coin's appearance offers a remarkable opportunity to the collector determined on the highest quality.
