1797 S-139 R1 VF25. Ten points sharper but covered with extremely faint granularity under glossy olive brown and chocolate toning. Looks smooth to the unaided eye. No verdigris and the only notable marks are a rim nick opposite the chin and a planchet flake at the dentils left of the lower curls (as struck). M-LDS, Breen state IV, with two die cracks from the lower curls to the dentils and a buckle in the field at the upper crack. Comes with a nice provenance. Estimate Value $600 - UP
