Lot 623
1796 S-97 R3 Draped Bust. VG-10. Sharpness VF30 but dull and covered with microscopic roughness. There are traces of hard greenish patina in a few protected areas on the reverse, but the remainder of the planchet is free of verdigris. The only mark is a tiny rim nick at I in LIBERTY. Dark olive and steel. M-LDS, Breen state IV, with a strong die crack through the top of RTY causing a slightly sunken retained cud break above those letters. In addition the obverse is slightly misaligned to K-9. The date and legends are complete and clear.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
Ex Jonathan Kern.
