Lot 637
1796 S-119 R3 Draped Bust. VF-35. Glossy steel brown and chocolate with frosty lighter steel brown toning in protected areas. Smooth surfaces offering excellent eye appeal. The only notable mark is a fine hairline scratch from the top of the hair ribbon to the dentils at the left. M-LDS, Breen state III, showing small rim cud breaks at TAT and clear die cracks at the bottom of the obverse. Possibly from the famous Nichols Hoard of mint state 1796 and 1797 cents, but this one saw limited circulation before being preserved for a collector.
Estimated Value $2,000-UP.
Ex Fred H. Borcherdt.
