Lot 433
1835 N-12 R4+ F12. Fine-12. Sharpness F15 but there is a dull rim nick under the 8 in the date plus a lighter one at RI in AMERICA. Otherwise just a few trivial contact marks on a smooth, attractive planchet. Glossy medium brown and chocolate with hints of reddish brown toning in the fields and protected areas. Rare LDS with a strong cud break at the dentils over star 8 angling down to just above the outer point of star 9. The reverse is rotated 40 degrees CW. Called VF20 net F12 in the Noyes census, his photo #27501. Removed from an NCS slab graded VF details scratched (NCS label included, and it shows the attribution and Reiver provenance). DWH #2940.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
