Lot 3
1793 C-1 R3+. VF-30. Choice glossy medium brown with light chocolate toning on the highpoints. The surfaces are virtually flawless and the eye appeal is exceptional. The best identifying mark is a tiny, barely visible planchet flake (as struck) hidden in the hair below the E in LIBERTY. A perfectly balanced strike but very slightly off center to K-4 leaving some of the border beads tight to the edge of the planchet, especially on the reverse. Early die state, Manley state 1.0. Weight 98.4 grains.
Estimated Value $12,000 - 15,000.
