Lot Title:	1826 6 Over 5 SEGS (as described)
Lot Number:	886
Description:	Ex-Eliasberg. Newcomb-8, cataloger's grade: AU/surface defects. SEGS indicates a pedigree string of Eliasburg(sp) / B. Max Mehl / William Cutler Atwater and also states "obverse flaw". In addition to the area of roughness at upper left, two small dark scratches at upper right and isolated porosity on the reverse far left are also notable. Despite the relatively small size of the black-and-white photo in the Eliasberg catalog, this coin can be affirmed as lot 563 (May 20-22, 1996). As an early die-state example, the underdigit can be plainly viewed with a loupe, as can relatively beautiful, satiny lustrous surfaces throughout. It is interesting to note that the rarity of N-8 has diminished from R.3 in 1996, to R.2 today.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
