<B>1851-C $5 --Reverse Scratched, Reverse Rim Filed--NCS. AU Details.</B></I> Variety 16-G. A scarce C-mint five that is seldom seen with minimal wear. This piece is actually much nicer than the disclaimers make it sound. There are several shallow scratches that run parallel to the bottom of the eagle's left (facing) wing. There is also a short area of filing on the reverse rim at 9 o'clock. However, the coin otherwise presents very well. The surfaces have deep rose toning with significant portions of green interspersed. Sharply defined.<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>)
