Lot 75
1794 C-1a R3. NGC graded AU-58 Brown. Repunched 179 with Large Edge Letters. Very attractive glossy chocolate and darker steel brown. The planchet is smooth, free of any hint of corrosion or verdigris. Just a few trivial contact marks, including a small rim nick opposite the chin. Perfectly centered on the planchet. MDS, Manley state 2.0, showing light die clashmarks on both sides. The repunching on the 179 remains clear and the reverse is rotated 30 degrees CW from a normal head-to-foot orientation. A very nice example of this popular variety. Our grade is EF40. The attribution is noted on the NGC label. In a new NGC 4 pronged holder. Pop 1; 2 finer, 1 in 62, 1 in 63.
Estimated Value $10,000 - 11,000.
