Lot 136
1794 S-32 R2 NGC graded VF Details, Corroded. Sharpness VF20 where properly struck up, but the right edge of both sides is softly struck due to the die faces being out of proper parallel alignment (a problem for this die variety noted by Breen in his large cent encyclopedia). The planchet is covered with very fine porosity under slightly glossy light olive brown and chocolate toning. No verdigris. The only marks are a small planchet chip at the rim right of the Y in LIBERTY and a barely visible rim bruise at TE in UNITED. E-MDS, Breen state II. The crack through the first S in STATES is clear but the rim cud at the L in LIBERTY has not formed. Our grade is net VG10. Estimated Value $300-UP
