Lot 147
1797 S-124 R5+ VG10. Sharpness VF35 with very fine granularity covering the planchet plus a few patches of moderate roughness on both sides.

No contact marks or other defects. Sharply struck EDS, Breen state I, before any swelling or clashmarks. One of the sharpest examples known of this rare variety. Graded VF35 net F12 and tied for CC#5 in the Bland census. Estimated Value $600-UP
