Sale 2


Lot 1816

1804. NGC graded AU-58. Strong luster and quite a presentable strike make for a nice example of this "charmed date." The color is a mellow yellow. A fine scratch protrudes itself onto Liberty's bust, from the bottom of the chin to the base of her garment, but it doesn't touch her cheek or extend to the date. The heraldic shield shows a number of adjustments, from 7 o'clock up into the base of the right wing. Possibly from the collection of Dexter (of 1804 dollar fame) as there are four minute punched capital Ds in the clouds.You've got to really look for these, though, so they are more of a positive than a detriment--get in line with a famous previous owner of this coin!
