Lot 207
1806 S-270 R1 PCGS graded AU53. Glossy dark chocolate brown with lighter chocolate and steel brown toning on the highpoints. The only notable marks are a few faint hairline scratches in the obverse fields, the strongest of those in the field left of the lowest curls. Otherwise the surfaces and eye appeal of this cent are excellent. LDS, Breen state IV. There is obvious swelling around the date, more at ED in UNITED, and a narrow rim cud break over AT in STATES. A very attractive cent in spite of the trivial marks. Our grade is EF45 net EF40. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label.
Estimated Value $2,000-UP.
