Lot 481
1800 S-198 R5+ PCGS Genuine, VF Details, Environmental Damage. Slightly glossy dark olive brown and steel with lighter steel brown and chocolate toning on the highpoints. The obverse is reasonably smooth but the reverse shows light roughness mixed with some shallow pits, especially at ES OF. No verdigris, and the only notable contact marks are a couple light rim bumps on the left side of the obverse. The date is bold and the legends are clear. EDS, Breen state I, before the reverse die cracked. At least equal to the Breen plate coin for the die variety. Our grade is F15 sharpness net VG8. The finest known in both the Noyes and Bland census lists grades only VG10, so this one isn't far behind. Estimate Value $3,000 - UP
