Lot 325
1798 S-176 R4 Style II Hair with Small 8. Fine-12. A few points sharper but there is a small patch of very light roughness in the field over the hair ribbon. Otherwise this cent is choice and offers excellent eye appeal for the grade. No verdigris or marks other than a pinprick hidden at the hairline left of the shoulder. Glossy medium brown and chocolate with lighter brown highpoints on the obverse. MDS, Breen state VI, with a delicate but clear bulge in the field close over the bust tip in addition to the usual disjointed vertical die crack up from the bust tip. DWH #3055.
Estimated Value $750-UP.
