Lot 278
1795 S-76b R1 Plain Edge VF20. Sharpness EF40 with minor roughness in the fields and protected areas, strongest at the cap where there is some shallow verdigris. The only marks are a tiny scratch right of the Y in LIBERTY and a thin planchet crease in the dentils above ERT (as struck). Mostly glossy medium brown and light chocolate fading to darker chocolate brown in protected areas. Decent eye appeal in spite of the surface issues. Nicely struck E-MDS, Breen state IV. Minor swelling is starting to show in the field before the portrait but the dentils are nearly complete around both sides.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
