<B>1844-C $2 1/2 AU58 NGC.</B></I> Variety 6-E. The 1844-C is mainly found in lower grades, because it saw heavy circulation. By 1844, public confidence in Bechtler gold coins decreased, and a July 28, 1844 fire in the Charlotte Mint halted production until 1846. Pressure was placed on the already small mintage of 11,622 pieces, meaning that few high-grade coins survived. In fact, only 25 survivors have been certified at AU58 by both services combined, and a mere 16 examples finer. The present coin displays bright brass-gold surfaces that retain considerable luster. The design elements are well brought up, and just a few minute marks and wispy hairlines are noted on each side. NGC Census: 12 in 58, 11 finer (11/07). <BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Christian Gobrecht<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
