1798 S-149 R4+ Large 8 with Style I Hair VG7. Several points sharper but covered with minor roughness under a mostly glossy chocolate brown patina blending to darker olive brown toning in the fields and protected areas. The two-tone appearance accents the details and enhances the eye appeal. No verdigris or notable marks. LDS, Breen state III, with swelling at S-OF-A and obvious die scaling in the field before the neck. The date and legends are complete and clear except for weakness in the center of the reverse resulting from the slightly buckled die. An imperfect but decent example of a variety that almost never comes with good color and surfaces.
Estimated Value $600-UP.

 
Unsold
