Lot 612
"1815" made using an 1813 S-292 F12. Sharpness VF20 with some extremely fine roughness in the fields and a patch of light verdigris, probably removable, at ICA. The 3 in the date was skillfully altered into a 5. The result is a very deceptive example of the mythical 1815 dated large cent. Glossy dark olive brown with chocolate high points. EDS. DWH #1900.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
