Lot 222
1823 N-2 R2. PCGS graded Extremely Fine Detail Tooled. Glossy medium chocolate brown and steel. Looks smooth to the unaided eye but a glass reveals very fine roughness covering all but the highpoints of the devices, strongest at the U in UNITED. Lightly smoothed to minimize the roughness. No verdigris, and the only notable marks are a couple light rim bruises at stars 12 & 13 and a pair of small marks at the second A in AMERICA. M-LDS, with a rim cud break from star 4 to past star 6. Our grade is VF30 sharpness net F15+. Looks better than it might sound. The attribution and Great Pacific Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label (PCGS # 36757) Value $500 - UP
