Lot 607
1804 S-266b R5. VG-8. Glossy steel brown and chocolate with darker chocolate toning in protected areas. The obverse fields are smooth but not perfectly so. However, there is no corrosion or verdigris and the eye appeal is quite nice for the grade. The only marks are a very light rim bruise left of the L in LIBERTY and a tiny planchet fissure above the A in STATES, plus a pair of small nicks in the field behind the head. MDS, Breen state III, with a cud break connecting RTY to the rim but no cud at MERIC. A tough intermediate die state.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000.
Ex Mid-American Rare Coin Auctions 1/8/88:56.
