<B>1853/2 $20 AU58 NGC.</B></I> FS-301, formerly FS-008. The remnants of a 2 are visible beneath the 3 in the date and plain under magnification, and a diagnostic raised area (a rusted spot on the die) appears below the R in LIBERTY. Though this variety commands a comparatively modest premium in Very Fine and lower grades, the relative scarcity of overdated examples becomes plain in higher grades, with only eight Mint State pieces graded by NGC and PCGS combined (12/06).<BR> Light highpoint friction keeps this piece from a higher grade, but that makes it an opportunity to acquire a representative with a similar appearance for a considerably lower price. The apricot-gold surfaces have nearly full luster and few marks overall, and the strike is pleasing. Listed on page 254 of the 2007 <I>Guide Book.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
