Lot 511
1838 N-3 R1 EF45. EF-45. Glossy steel brown and chocolate with frosty light brown toning in protected areas. Smooth, attractive surfaces. Just a few trivial marks, including a small planchet chip on the rim over star 8 (as struck), a tiny rim nick under star 1, and a small pinprick near the dentils over star 9. LDS. The colon center dot on the reverse is now only a single, small dot (the upper dot is the one that faded away). The date is weak, especially the lower left part of the second 8, and the reverse dentils are gone. Removed from an NGC slab graded MS61BN (NGC label included, and it shows the attribution and Reiver provenance). DWH #2955.
Estimated Value $200-UP.
Ex Jules Reiver, Heritage 1/24/06:20098.
