1838 Coronet Head Large Cent, Choice Almost Uncirculated, PCGS AU-58
1838 Coronet Head Large Cent, Choice Almost Uncirculated, PCGS AU-58
A very attractive original coin with nice surfaces showing a minimum of wear, little enough that the very fine lines caused by die wear on the Obverse are still visible. In the soft Copper surface, these would disappear almost immediately with any real use. Almost full obvious luster on the Reverse, a little less on the Obverse due to the more unprotected fields. Problem free, evenly colored surfaces with no spots, stains, corrosion or heavy marks. A small natural planchet flaw on the Reverse at 5:00, common to the series & denomination. Obviously not a problem in the eyes of PCGS. A very pretty, original looking coin that would be perfect as a high grade Type example if cracked out of the holder. The planchet flaw would not be too obvious once placed into an album page. Individual coin images taken prior to submission.
