I'd been looking for this date for years and finally found one. The price seemed awfully high for what you might assume should be a common coin but I didn't want to miss a rare opportunity. The D and C mint 1850s seem more common than the Philadelphia coins. What do you all think about this one?

I'd say AU-53 with some nice luster.

I'll say AU-53, don't see any sign of damage.

50-53 seems right, no damage

Very nice eye-appeal with original patina. Doesn't have a "washed-out look".

It's a nice low AU grade.
Errers and Varietys.

AU-55 straight grade. You do have some nice scarcer date gold.

This is a tough date and really undervalued! I would like to get this date at some point.
I like the coin. It has good color and no real distracting marks. There is a little chatter on the rim, but it could be ignored or the service may have net graded the coin as a non details coin, but subtracted a few points from the grade. It looks like an AU-50 to me in detail and luster.
I think its' a prize coin!
