1798 S-178 R5+ Small 8, Style II Hair, Reverse of 1796 Fair-2. The obverse is sharper, the reverse weaker, which is normal for the variety.

The reverse is worn mostly smooth, perhaps 15% of the devices still visible including the single leaves at the top of the wreath (Reverse of 1796 type). Glossy olive brown and chocolate. M-LDS with die cracks through the date. The date is strong. Estimate Value $500 - UP
