Lot 486
1837 N-11 R1 EF40. Beaded Hair Cord. EF-40. Five points sharper but lightly cleaned, now retoned frosty golden light olive with bluish steel overtones. A trail of very tiny pinpricks under star 7 reaches the hair below. E-MDS. A short dash shows right of the base of the 1 and the repunching or die line along the left side of the 1 is strong. The reverse die cracks seen in the late state of N-9 are a bit weak but clearly visible (lapping between the N-9 and N-11 marriages weakened the cracks) and sharp die clashmarks show on both sides. There are no rim cuds on the reverse. DWH #1638.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
