Lot #394 - 1834 Classic, Plain 4 NGC AU-55
Gold $5-Classic Head Half Eagle
McCloskey 2-A is a cinch to attribute by noticing the tripled "4" in the date, as well as the egg-shaped period following 5D on the reverse. More than a twinge of luster lingers around the periphery, especially for the reverse, helping to settle the grade. While not a single surface nick warrants individual mention, either side does display its fair share of small, vague handling marks.
