Lot 528
1794 S-64 R5- No Fraction Bar PCGS VF Details Edge Repaired. A nicely detailed that is covered with very fine granularity on all but the highpoints, which are smooth. No verdigris and this piece has good eye appeal in spite of the imperfect surfaces. Slightly glossy chocolate brown delicately mottled with lighter brown toning. The highpoints are a lighter shade of brown. The only notable marks are a small dig hidden between the bottom of the cap and the hair, a shallow chip on the rim right of the second S in STATES, and two small digs near the leaf below that first S. EDS, Breen state I, before the reverse die cracked. Struck with the obverse die misaligned slightly to K-3. The date and legends are complete and clear, and the Missing Fraction Bar feature is obvious. Our grade is net F12. A nice lower grade example of this tough "Redbook" variety. The attribution and Alfonso Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. Estimated Value $3,000 - UP
