^Lot 1945 1861 $2.50 Liberty

1861 $2.50 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-64 CAC Approved. New reverse. Bold strike with reflective fields. Tremendous detail from a very positive strike, which collectors like better to see than wishy-washy detail; furthermore, the surfaces show sharp golden hues. The mint luster rolls around both sides with a pleasing reflective sheen, and none of the features reveal any bothersome distractions. Possibly this piece was one of the earliest from new dies, judging by the prooflike tendencies. Pop 80; 35 finer (PCGS # 7794) .
Estimated Value $1,700 - 1,800.
