Lot 71
1795 C-3 R5+ Punctuated Date with Plain Edge AG3. Sharpness VG7 but banged up a bit so the planchet is bent. In addition a crude circle was scratched into the center of the obverse. Fortunately the planchet is void of any trace of corrosion or verdigris, and the toning is an attractive glossy chocolate brown and steel. The date and legends are strong except for HALF CENT, which is nearly gone. The comma between the 1 & 7 in the date is easily visible. Weight 75.2 grains. Estimated Value $400-UP
