1796 S-84 R3 Liberty Cap PCGS graded MS62 Brown. Very attractive medium steel brown and light chocolate with a hint of light olive on the reverse. Traces of very faded mint red can be found in protected areas on the reverse. Nearly flawless with superior eye appeal. The only marks are a faint spot of slightly darker toning on the throat, some very shallow low spots (caused by debris on the die) inside the wreath, and a pre-striking hairline scratch in the planchet over ST in STATES. MDS, Breen state II. There is a very fine die crack arcing across the bust and a slightly stronger crack through the top of OF to the dentils over the adjacent ES. Graded MS60 net AU55 and tied for CC#5 in the Noyes census, his photo #29240. Bland says AU55 and tied for CC#7. Our grade is AU58. A beautiful Liberty Cap cent that comes with a great provenance. The attribution is noted on the PCGS Secure label. PCGS population 1; 2 finer in 64. PCGS #35759. Estimated Value $20,000 - UP
