1807 S-271 R1 "Comet" Obverse PCGS Genuine. Sharpness at least EF45 but there are a dozen small splashes of microscopic roughness scattered over the obverse and a couple more on the reverse, the largest of these at ON and ENT in ONE CENT. The remainder of the planchet is smooth and lustrous. No verdigris, but there are a couple dull, irregular scratches in the field behind the portrait: one behind the head and another left of the lower curls. Frosty steel brown and light chocolate. M-LDS, Breen state VI. The "Comet" break behind the head is strong and there are additional die failures evident on the neck and in the field on both sides of the portrait. Our grade is EF45+ sharpness net VF25+. The attribution and "Comet" feature are shown on the PCGS label.
Estimated Value $1,200-UP.
