1799 S-189 R2. About Good-3. The obverse is better while the reverse is weaker. Glossy dark chocolate and steel with darker olive brown toning on the head. The planchet is smooth, void of any hint of corrosion or verdigris. The only marks of any significance are a pair of old pinscratches in the hair left of the ear and a tiny rim dent at OF. The date is nearly complete and is easily readable, especially the second 9, which is strong. A decent example for the grade, and the relatively strong date is a big plus at this level.
Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,250.

 
Realized $1,438
