PCGS and Coin Data

Catalog Number: 7128

Grade: Almost Uncirculated 58

VAM:  1D - Pummeled or "Flaky" Eye

VSS Number: 013210

 

 

Comments:  The slight wear on the cheek gives this coin away as an AU 58, but we swear we have seen coins with this light wear classified as MS 60.  The reverse is even better than the obverse but apparently does not tip the scales into mint state.

 

Either way this is a great example of a VAM 1D, probably the most famous of the 1881-O series.  On this coin the eye socket is badly damaged indicating that this is probably a latter die state coin.
