1800. "AMERICAI" B-19, BB-192 Rarity 2 PCGS graded Genuine XF Details. Cleaning. Well struck with sharp details throughout. Nice clean planchet and not harshly cleaned. Lightly toned and darkening naturally around the devices. It is believed a slip of the die maker's engraving tool cause a depressed scrape in the die somewhat reminiscent of a letter punch "I" but without serifs. This variety, a Red Book variety, has come down to us as the AMERICAI variety due to the error's location at the end of the word (PCGS # 6892) .
Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300.
