The contact marks are limited mostly to the obverse and consist of a shallow "squish" left of the lower curls to the rim and a series of dull but strong digs near the dentils from behind the head clockwise to the bust tip (obviously intentional). A couple scratches at the bust and a dull dent on the shoulder round out the significant marks on that side. The only mark on the reverse is a rim nick at the first S in STATES.

Lot 294		1803 S-265 R4 Large Date & Fraction. PCGS graded Fine-15. Glossy light chocolate brown and steel with darker chocolate brown and olive toning in protected areas. The only mark is a fine scratch from just left of the first S in STATES to the T in CENT. This scratch is old and blends into the natural toning, but it is visible to the unaided eye.

Lot 296		1804 S-266b R5 PCGS Genuine. Sharpness VF25 but the planchet is covered with very fine roughness and much of the field before the portrait has been lightly scraped to minimize the roughness in that area. A shallow lump of reddish verdigris is located in the field under the L in LIBERTY. The reverse is relatively nice showing only microscopic roughness in the fields and protected areas and no verdigris. Slightly glossy dark olive brown with lighter chocolate brown toning covering the devices.

Both sides show extensive die rust and the obverse has obvious die cracks including a final one from the hair left of the neck to the upper lip. LDS, Breen state II. Die lapping has weakened the central details and left flat spots in the hair and on the neck.

Lot 299		1805 S-267 R1 PCGS Genuine, AU Details, Cleaning. Frosty steel brown and light chocolate. A sharp, beautiful cent to the unaided eye, but a strong glass shows uniform extremely fine granularity covering both sides. While the PCGS label indicates "Cleaning" is behind the no-grade decision, it appears the microscopic roughness is a more logical reason.

Lot 304		1807/6 S-272 R4+ Overdate Small 7 over 6 PCGS Genuine, VF Details, Environmental Damage. Medium chocolate brown and olive with moderately corroded surfaces. Some of the details are consistent with a high-end VF or even an EF grade while others are weaker due to the corrosion. Actually this cent displays very little wear at all. But the roughness is significant and the eye appeal is not very nice. The date is clear except for the 7 and underlying 6, which are visible but weakened by corrosion. The legends are clear except for LIB in LIBERTY, which is weak. Our grade is VF20 sharpness net AG3. The attribution and Reed provenance are shown on the PCGS label. Estimated Value $750-UP.
