Lot 198
1793 S-11a R4+ Wreath Cent VG7. Vine & Bars Edge. Slightly sharper, particularly on the obverse, but there is an "X" scratched into the field before the throat. Other minor contact marks include a half dozen tiny rim nicks over LIBER and a dozen tiny pinpricks on the reverse. Cleaned long ago, not retoned a rather glossy light olive and chocolate with lighter toning in the central part of the reverse. The date is strong and the legends are complete. EDS, Breen state I, before any die clashmarks.
