1795 S-76a R5 Lettered Edge VG10. Attractive glossy medium chocolate brown and steel with slightly lighter steel brown toning on the devices. The surfaces are smooth and evenly worn, and the only notable mark is a strong, pre-striking impression in the planchet at UNI. This defect appears to have been present in the planchet strip, probably near the edge or end of the strip, before the planchet was cut out. The opposing rim at the top of the cap is slightly beveled, and this flaw appears to be mint-made as well. The date and legends are all clear and the edge lettering is complete. MDS, Breen state II, with dull die clashmarks. Weight 193.5 grains with a constant diameter of 29.0mm. Estimate Value $800 - UP
