Lot Description

Untoned and flashy, with impressive luster for a mere “50.”  The fields are slightly busy, but free of significant marks.  An early date with strong eye appeal.  Does it have the occasionally seen inverted edge lettering?  The older PCGS holder hides the edge.  So we don't know.  The consignor never checked as he purchased the coin, misattributed as an O.107.    Est. $600 to $800.
