Lot 253
1796 S-106 R4+ Draped Bust G6. Sharpness VF30 but covered with moderate roughness under a slightly glossy dark olive and steel patina. No verdigris, and the only marks are a rim bruise over the R in LIBERTY and another above the O in OF. Has the look of a piece that saw very little circulation before being lost in soil or some other unfriendly environment. EDS. The date is complete except for the bottom edge of the 6, which is starting to fade into the rim, and the legends are complete and easily readable in spite of the roughness.
Estimated Value $750-UP.
