Lot 359
1831 N-12 R1 EF45. EF-45. Glossy chocolate brown with delicate overtones of bluish steel in the obverse fields and frosty lighter steel brown in protected areas of the reverse. A few tiny nicks on the jawline, a small nick in the field close off the chin, and a few tiny hairline scratches over the E in ONE. EDS, but not quite the earliest. The obverse fields are smooth and slightly reflective thanks to a fresh die polishing. The obverse die cracks from the earlier N-11 marriage are light, but a fine die crack now connects the outer point of star 4 to the dentils and the crack from star 13 into the field near the date has an extension down to the dentils. DWH #0782.
Estimated Value $200-UP.
