Lot 253
1801 S-219 R2 3-Error Reverse PCGS Genuine. Sharpness near EF40 but there are a few dull scratches on the obverse and a spot of reddish corrosion in the hair left of the eye. The most notable scratches are a diagonal one on the cheek and another in the field over the bust extending upon the neck. The surfaces appear smooth to the unaided eye, but a glass reveals uniform extremely fine roughness under the mostly glossy dark olive brown and steel toning. Sharply struck E-MDS, Breen state II, a rare die state for this variety. There are clear die clashmarks at RTY and to the right but no die cracks on the reverse. The reverse is rotated 30 degrees CCW. The date and legends are bold and all 3 of the die-cutter errors are strong (missing wreath stem, 000 denominator, and U over inverted U). Our grade is VF35+ sharpness net F15. The attribution and Reynolds provenance are shown on the PCGS label.
Estimated Value $1,500-UP.
Ex Tom Reynolds.
