Lot 369
1817 N-4 R3+ VF35+. Choice glossy chocolate brown with traces of slightly lighter brown toning in protected areas on the reverse. A beautiful example for the grade, close to EF40. The only marks are a very light rim bruise above star 8 and a faint diagonal hairline scratch above CE in CENT. MDS. The always-present die crack through the base of the date is strong and a new radial crack connects that crack to the rim under the right point of star 1. A very pleasing example of this tough variety, and it comes with an impressive provenance.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
