Lot 114
1794 C-9 R2 Liberty Cap, Head Right VF25+. Close to VF30 and very attractive, nearly choice. Glossy medium chocolate brown with frosty lighter brown toning covering the protected areas on both sides. Great surfaces and eye appeal with only a few trivial contact marks. The notable ones are a very light rim bruise at TE in UNITED, a similar one at TA in STATES, and a tiny rim nick over the E in AMERICA. EDS, Manley state 1.0, before the die crack from the dentils to the left edge of the cap. The reverse is slightly misaligned to K-4.5 while the obverse is perfectly centered on the planchet. A premium example for the grade. Weight 110.1 grains. Davy #94.9.4.
Estimated Value $1,500-UP.
