Lot 259
1794 S-28 R2 F15+. At least 5 points sharper but the toning is rather dark and there is very fine verdigris or crud in protected areas. Mostly glossy dark chocolate brown with lighter steel brown toning on the highpoints. The only marks are a dull, light nick just left of the bottom of the cap and a faint scratch hidden in the toning just right of the Y in LIBERTY. Scarce EDS, Breen state I, with die clashmarks on the reverse. The date and legends are all bold. This cent offers excellent eye appeal in spite of the minor surface issues. Estimate Value $1,500 - UP
