1837 N-17 R4 Plain Hair Cord VF25. Sharpness EF40 and choice except for "March 24" delicately pinscratched into the field before the portrait and "1840" similarly applied to the field above the head. Obviously that date was important to someone at the time. Otherwise this piece essentially is flawless in every respect. Glossy medium brown and light chocolate. LDS with a series of rim cud breaks around the obverse and bold die cracks on the lower part of the reverse.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
