The June 2-5, 2002, Pre-Long Beach Sale, Sale 14
Lot 2343
1795. Two leaves beneath
each wing. BB-21, URS-12, B-1, R-2. PCGS graded EF-45. An
above-average example of this common variety that boasts lovely deep steel
shades in the fields, with much light silvery devices, The obverse shows fewer
than the usual handling marks, and is quite pleasing in appearance. The reverse
has identical color, with lighter hues on the worn areas of the eagle. We do
note some minor dull scrapes around the periphery, one near the first S of
STATES, two more between OF A, and the worst between AM of AMERICA, but these
are all old and toned over. Traces of luster near the devices. One for the type
collector who appreciates a well struck high grade coin.
Estimated Value
$5,000-6,000.
