1848 N-36 R5- VF30. Ten points sharper but the fields and protected areas are covered with extremely fine granularity that's mostly hidden under glossy chocolate brown toning. No verdigris, and the only notable mark is a nearly horizontal nick in the field before the end of the nose. EDS, die state a. The clashmarks are strong and the die line from the dentils to the bottom of the first 8 is sharp. Tied for CC#11 honors in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
