Lot 90
1818 N-4 R4+ PCGS graded G4. Attractive glossy olive brown and chocolate. The planchet is smooth, just a few small nicks including a tiny rim nick off the stem tip. Struck very slightly off center to the right leaving the details stronger on the left side, weaker on the right. Rare EDS, before any hint of swelling in the obverse fields and without a radial die crack from the dentils through star 3. The O in ONE is properly struck, another indication the obverse die has not started to fail. A scarce die state for this tough variety. Our grade is G5. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. PCGS #36610. Estimated Value $350 - UP
