Lot 5
1794 C-1a R3 Large Edge Letters VF30. Glossy chocolate and olive brown. The surfaces are smooth and offer great eye appeal. The only marks are a faint hairline scratch under the lowest curl and a very light rim bruise left of the date, neither mark offering any distraction. LDS, Manley state 3.0. The die clashmarks on both sides are quite strong, the die crack to the M in AMERICA is clear, and the reverse is rotated 20 degrees CCW from a normal head-to-foot die orientation. Noyes photo #73651. Weight 99.8 grains. Removed from a PCGS slab graded VF35 (old green PCGS label included, #1003.35/6372153).
Estimated Value $4,000-UP.
