Lot 472
1802 S-241 R1 Stemless Wreath with Double Fraction Bar. VG-7. Glossy dark olive brown with steel highpoints. There are traces of shallow verdigris caked into the protected areas and the surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they are acceptable for the grade. There is a dull rim nick left of the lower curls and a small planchet chip in the field near the dentils off the chin. The date is strong and the legends are clear, including the stemless wreath and double fraction bar features. M-LDS, Breen state IV, with a strong cud break connecting the top of the F in OF to the dentils above the adjacent A. Removed from an NCS slab graded "VG details, environmental damage," and the NCS label is included. DWH #2570.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
