Lot 107
1794 S-22 R1 PCGS graded VF30, CAC Approved. Choice frosty medium brown with darker steel brown and chocolate toning on the highpoints. The surfaces are smooth and this cent has outstanding eye appeal. No roughness or verdigris and only a few trivial contact marks. The notable marks are a thin nick hidden between the top of the R in LIBERTY and the dentils above, a dull tick on the truncation over the 4, and a dull nick on the throat. Scarce EDS, Breen state I, before any swelling at the top of the wreath. Graded VF25 in the Noyes census, his photo #37459. Our grade is VF25 as well. A premium example of this tough die state. The attribution and Trollan provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 2; 10 finer for the variety. Estimate Value $3,000 - UP
