Lot 341
1798 S-156 R5+ Style I Hair, Reverse of 1796 AG3+. Slightly sharper, especially on the obverse, but there are traces of extremely fine roughness on both sides under mostly glossy chocolate and medium steel brown toning. The only notable mark is a nick on the I in LIBERTY. The date is bold and the Single Leaves feature at the top of the wreath (Reverse of 1796) is clear. LDS, Breen state III, with a strong die crack connecting the bust to the rim. An acceptable example of this tough "Redbook" variety. Estimate Value $800 - UP
Ex H. Craig Hamling 8/2011-Shawn Yancey 2011.
