Lot 165
1793 S-13 R4- Liberty Cap G6. Glossy dark chocolate brown. The surfaces appear perfectly smooth to the unaided eye, but a glass reveals extremely faint roughness under the glossy patina in the fields and protected areas on both sides. No verdigris, and the only marks are some faint, very old hairline scratches in the obverse fields and a short vertical scratch on the upper half of the neck, plus a very light rim bruise at TA in STATES. The date is strong and the legends are clear except for weakness on ONE CENT. A very nice Liberty Cap 1793 cent for the grade in spite of the minor imperfections. Holmes #3545.
Estimated Value $5,000-UP.
