Description du lot

1798 Draped Bust Cent. S-177. Rarity-5. Style II Hair. VF-20 (PCGS). Blended dark and medium brown patina to both sides, the surfaces microporous with light build up in the protected areas around Liberty's portrait and scattered about on the reverse. The latter side is weak in the center, although the denomination ONE CENT is legible, and all other devices are suitably bold for the grade. A scarce and conditionally challenging variety, the Condition Census listing in the 2000 Breen large cent encyclopedia is comprised of coins with EAC grades of VF-30 to Fine-15. Breen Die State IV. PCGS# 36101. NGC ID: 2244. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
