Lot 255

1798/7 S-152 R2 Overdate Large 8 over 7 PCGS graded XF40. Glossy medium chocolate brown and steel with lighter coppery tan toning on the rims. No corrosion or verdigris, but there is a planchet void on the rim before the end of the nose that does catch your eye. Otherwise the only notable mark is a dull nick near the dentils behind the head. MDS, Breen state II, with a very subtle wave in the field from the rim to the hair under the ribbon. The date is strong, the legends are complete, and the overdate feature is obvious. Our grade is VF20. The attribution and Heard provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; 3 finer, 1 in 45, 1 in 53, 1 in 61 for the variety. PCGS #35999. Estimate Value $5,000 - UP
Ex Chris McCawley 6/1/2012-Gene Heard Collection.
