Lot Description

Later die state than the preceding AU, but with significant luster framing the devices.  Quite remarkable for a VF!  The coin is attractively toned and without defects; it will fit nicely in an XF date or variety set.  PCGS inadvertently labeled the coin 1807 “Draped Bust.”  When I sent it to CAC it was returned with a note from John A., “NICE coin, but a capped bust.”  Translation: but for the PCGS faux pas the coin would come with a CAC sticker.  Yes, PCGS will fix its mistake without charge.  Est. $550 to $750.
