Lot 626
1848 N-30 R5. VF-35. Sharpness EF45 but lightly cleaned and nicely retoned glossy light chocolate brown. No spots or stains, just a few light contact marks. These include a vertical nick off the chin, a smaller diagonal nick in the field before the eye, and a dull nick on the rim at star 5. Very nice for the grade in spite of the retoning, perhaps closer to net EF40. Very rare EDS, die state a (Reiver's N-43), with fine die lines at stars 10-12 and AME. Tied for CC#5.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
