Lot Description

Dirty and original, this CHOICE XF has a wonderful original skin that graces both sides. Boldly defined, we think if this coin had been stripped of its skin, it would have graded AU, as so many have. We are so glad this coin's originality has been preserved! Only some stray contact is noted for accuracy, but totally appropriate for the 45 grade. The eye appeal is SUPERB for the grade! PCGS 73, NGC 55, CAC 6.The only CAC-approved example to sell in auction brought $2,359 in July 2012--that is nearly six years ago! A popular Type 1 $20 in a great collector grade! Cert.
