Lot 251
1794 S-24 R1 PCGS graded XF40. Choice glossy medium brown and light chocolate. Smooth and very attractive, just lightly worn showing just a few trivial contact marks. The only notable mark is a dull rim nick at the D in UNITED. MDS, Breen state IV. The die crack through the L to the head is clear and a faint crack reaches from the dentils right of the date into the truncation. Minor swelling weakens ENT in CENT and the flaw through IC in AMERICA is just starting to show. A nice example of the "Apple Cheeks" variety, so-called due to the puffy appearance of Ms Liberty's cheek. Our grade is VF25+. Estimate Value $4,000 - UP
