Lot 620
1796 S-93 R3 Draped Bust. VG-10. Clipped Planchet. Slightly sharper but covered with microscopic roughness under a mostly glossy chocolate brown patina. There are some very tiny pitmarks on the portrait but no verdigris or contact marks except for a thin diagonal nick in the center of the neck. A minor planchet clip is located left of the lowest curl and over TA in STATES, as struck. EDS, Breen state I, before any die cracks. The date and legends are complete and strong. This cent offers nice eye appeal for the grade in spite of the imperfect surfaces.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
Ex Fred Borcherdt, earlier from "Bol" (M. H. Bolender?) 10/15/35 with old envelope front.
