Lot 25
1795 C-4 R3 Plain Edge VG10. Off Center. Slightly sharper but the obverse was lightly burnished to minimize traces of minor roughness and retoned glossy medium brown with a few tiny splashes of chocolate. The reverse is uniform glossy medium brown but the color is original on that side and the surfaces are smooth. No notable marks or other defects. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0 early. The bulge in the field before the portrait is weak but present and the crack from the first T in STATES to the leaf is light. The date and legends are strong except for the usual weakness inside the wreath. Struck 5% off center to K-10. Weight 82.4 grains. Davy #95.4.7.
Estimated Value $600-UP.
Ex Don Valenziano 8/8/92.
