1797 S-142 R5+. VG-8. A couple points sharper but there is a small area of roughness at the T in CENT that extends into the leaves to the right. Otherwise there are just a few trivial contact marks consistent with the grade, including a small planchet chip on the cheek and a short scratch into the field from the mouth. Glossy chocolate and steel. EDS, Breen state I. The date and legends are complete and strong. Called VG10 net VG7 and tied for CC#11 in the Noyes census, his photo #28756. Del Bland says net VG8.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
