Lot 2259
1804 C-7 R4. VG-10. Spiked Chin. Glossy steel and chocolate. No roughness or verdigris, only a few minor contact marks. The notable marks are a nick on the top of the 0 in the date and a dull scratch blended perfectly into the natural toning in the field left of the middle curls. E-MDS, Manley state 4.0, which he says is very rare. Fine die cracks show at ATE, OF, and MER, but there are no cud breaks. An attractive example of this rare die state of a very tough variety.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
