Lot 359
1816 N-9 R3 EF45. Five points sharper but there is a small dig on the front edge of the neck and three small nicks at star 6. Otherwise this piece is choice and offers outstanding eye appeal for the grade. Lustrous light steel brown and tan with a spot of dark olive brown toning in the field right of the main curl. Satiny mint frost covers the fields and protected areas on both sides. MDS. The repunching on the 8 is gone but the repunching on the left base of the second 1 is still visible (although dull). The dentils are dull but visible all the way around both sides and the reverse is rotated 15 degrees CCW. Called AU55 net EF45 and tied for CC#13 in the Noyes census, his photo #27718. Comes with an nice provenance.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
