Lot 1990
1807. Miller-89, Breen 3-C, Rarity-7. . M-89. VF-25. An extremely rare coin in any grade, this particular one has some scratches on Liberty's face and into the right obverse field. It is an early die state before the obverse die shattered, but does show the reverse crack from the top arrowhead to the junction of the left wing and shield. We offered the Bass II coin in our October 2001 Sale, which grades MS-64. Robert Miller notes that only 4 are known, with a 5th example rumored. The surfaces show moderate hairlines, but the color is decent and all things considered this isn't a bad coin to represent the variety. One for the specialist.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,250.
From the Robert W. Miller, Sr., collection.
