Lot 403
1835 N-3 R3 Head of 1834 VF30. The obverse was lightly cleaned and retoned using a sulfur-based agent. The obverse is mostly glossy dark steel with some lighter reddish chocolate in protected areas. The reverse is glossy chocolate and steel brown with a swipe of reddish brown at the right bottom. Frosty flowline luster covers the protected areas, especially on the reverse. A small, dull nick high on the neck is the only notable mark. E-MDS, without any dentil crumbling under the 35 or star 2. The reverse is rotated 25 degrees CW and there is a fine double profile on the lips, chin, stars 1-11, and IBERTY (caused by die bounce). Estimate Value $250 - UP
