Lot 157
1826 C-1 R1 EF45+. Glossy medium brown blending to darker chocolate brown in protected areas. Hints of very faded reddish steel brown from an old cleaning can be found in a few protected areas on the reverse; otherwise this piece would rate a higher grade. The only mark is a dull vertical scratch right of the H in HALF. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0. A fine die crack reaches from the bust tip to star 1 and the myriad die lines right of the date are strong. The reverse is rotated slightly CCW relative to the normal head-to-foot orientation. Estimate Value $200 - UP
