Description du lot

Another Red Book staple with too much luster for the assigned grade. The bodacious obverse glows with sunset colors; the reverse is similar, a touch more modest because of (the usual) weakness at the eagle’s head and left wing. XF and AU examples of the “R.1” E over A are devilishly hard to find. I see but one or two a year. Est. $1,250 to $1,600.
