Lot 335
1807 C-1 R1 VF25. Sharpness EF40 but covered with small nicks, none notable but far too many for the sharpness grade. A tiny diagonal nick in the field over the tip of the nose can help identify this piece. Glossy chocolate and steel with frosty lighter brown in protected areas. There are a couple small puffs of darker olive toning on both sides and a swipe of reddish chocolate in the center of the reverse. Rare EDS, Manley state 1.0. Similar to the preceding lot, but the clashmarks and die polishing lines found on the obverse of this example are fading. The dentils around the obverse, however, are complete. The reverse is rotated 15 degrees CCW. Davy #07.1.32.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
Ex California State Numismatic Association bourse 5/1984-Bill Weber, McCawley & Grellman Auctions/Superior 6/3/2002:2346.
