"1799" S-148 of 1798 with date altered to 1799 G5. Dark steel and olive, the obverse rather glossy but the reverse matte. The engraving was done with excellent skill and is effectively hidden under minor roughness added to hide the truth, but the Style I Hair was a foolish mistake. But then, if they were smart. We should be thankful. DWH #3066.
Estimated Value $50-UP.
Ex Bob Hastings-John D. Wright 1/18/06-Bob Grellman & Chris McCawley 4/3/06.


 
Realized $184
