1794 S-41 R3 VG8. Sharpness near F12 with extremely fine granularity covering the fields and protected areas while the highpoints are smooth. Just a few trivial contact marks visible under magnification, none significant. A glass reveals a couple insignificant spots of shallow verdigris on both sides but overall this piece offers decent eye appeal for the grade. Slightly glossy olive brown with lighter chocolate toning on the devices. The date and legends are complete and easily readable. E-MDS, Breen state III. The die crack through the D in UNITED to the wreath is clear. Estimated Value $300-UP
