Lot 74
1806 C-1 R1 Stemless Wreath. AU-58. Lustrous steel brown and chocolate with tan faded down from mint color showing through in protected areas on both sides. Great eye appeal, just a hint of friction on the highest points from mint state. The notable marks are a small spot of darker olive brown toning under the curl on the neck, a faint diagonal hairline on the cheek, and a shallow low spot (caused by debris on the die) over the A in HALF. EDS with the reverse rotated 15 degrees CCW. The rim cud break right of the fraction is strong, which is unusual.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,250.
Ex Gene Braig 10/2004.
