Lot 140
1794 S-22 R1 PCGS Genuine, AU Details, Tooled. Burnished and very nicely retoned glossy medium brown and light chocolate. A beautiful cent to the unaided eye but a glass reveals the burnishing. No spots or stains, and the only mark is a tiny depression in the field near the dentils before the face. LDS, Breen state VIII. In addition to the obvious "mounds" on the reverse that characterize this variety there is a clear die crack up from the dentils through the 4 and neck. Our grade is EF40 sharpness net VF25.
Estimated Value $1,500-UP.
