Lot 405
1796 S-91 R3 Liberty Cap VG10. Clipped Planchet. Five points sharper but there are too many light contact marks for the higher grade. The only notable mark is a dull but relatively large rim nick over the first A in AMERICA. Attractive glossy light olive and chocolate brown with a small splash of darker chocolate brown toning on the cap. Nicely struck LDS, Breen state VIII, with horizontal waves in the obverse fields. A curved planchet clip affects the dentils under the 796 and the opposing ones over TES in STATES. The date and legends are all strong.
Estimated Value $600-UP.
