Lot 151
1825 C-1 R3 PCGS graded MS62 Brown. Glossy medium brown and light reddish chocolate blending to medium chocolate brown in a few places. Sharply struck and attractive but there is a hint of rub on the highest points of the devices. In addition there is a trail of microscopic ticks from the bust to the lower point of star 1 and a small diagonal struck-through line at the lower right point of star 7 (as struck). MDS, Manley state 2.0. A faint vertical die crack reaches from the dentils at the top of the obverse down through the hair and ear to the curl on the neck where it fades out. In addition there is a subtle lump in the field (clashmark?) near the leaf off the right foot of the F in OF. The reverse is rotated 10 degrees clockwise. Our grade is AU55 sharpness net AU50. The attribution and Green Tree Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 3; 2 finer, 1 in 63, 1 in 65 for the variety. Estimate Value $2,000 - UP
