Lot 183
1799 S-189 R2. ANACS graded Details of VG-8, Corroded. Sharpness near VG8 but dark with extremely fine roughness under the slightly glossy dark olive and steel toning. There are a few specks of shallow greenish verdigris on the reverse and the numerator is obliterated by a pitmark. A rim bruise opposite the chin plus a few smaller ones elsewhere on both sides are the notable contact marks. The date is strong, especially the 99, and the legends are complete, although UNITED is very weak thanks to an uneven strike. The lump over the T in CENT is bold. Our grade is net G5.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000.
