Lot 386
1812 S-289 R1 Large Date NGC graded AU53. Glossy medium chocolate brown. Frosty flowline luster covers the fields and protected areas and the eye appeal is very nice, especially on the obverse where the luster dominates. The reverse is not as lustrous thanks to uniform extremely faint granularity on all but the highpoints. The notable marks are a couple thin nicks right of the date and a tiny planchet flake off the tip of the bust, as struck. M-LDS, Breen state III. Most of the dentils on the reverse are gone and the reverse is rotated 25 degrees clockwise relative to the normal head-to-foot die orientation. Our grade is EF45+ sharpness net EF40. Estimate Value $2,500 - UP
