Lot 326
1830 N-10 R4+ VF25. VF-25. Glossy steel brown and chocolate with darker chocolate toning in protected areas and hints of bluish steel overtone. Possibly lightly cleaned and retoned, but the color and eye appeal are excellent. The notable marks are two tiny pinpricks on the bust tip, two slightly stronger ones at star 10, and a tiny nick on the reverse center dot. M-LDS with a partially raised retained cud break over ATES and a strong die crack up from the top of that E. The retained cud is raised at both ends but not in the center over the E. Tied for CC#11 overall but equal to the finest of the die state in the Noyes census. DWH #2467.
Estimated Value $1,250-UP.
