Lot 356
1831 N-11 R2 VF25. Small Letters Reverse. VF-25. Five points sharper with a few too many light contact marks for the higher grade. The only notable marks are a fine vertical hairline scratch at the right side of the C in CENT and a dull rim nick at TE in UNITED. Attractive glossy medium brown and chocolate. MDS. A new die crack reaches up from the right center of the second S in STATES to the dentils above. The die cracks over TES are strong but the area outlined by those cracks has not started to rise as a retained cud. Removed from an NGC slab graded EF45 (NGC label included, and it shows the attribution and Reiver provenance). DWH #2931.
Estimated Value $150-UP.
Ex Jules Reiver, Heritage 1/24/06:19959.
