Description du lot

An absolute, unfettered knockout!  This coin and the earlier 1829 O.113, lot 25, are from the same mold, even sharing an R.4 rarity rating.  A Wayte Raymond holder was undoubtedly in this coin’s past.  Captivating iridescence highlights the stars and legend; the pale rose centers glow with underlying luster.  Tim got it right when he offered a one-word description on his consignment sheet – WOW!  A private acquisition from the late Stu Keen in September 1993.    Estimate: $1,000 to $1,300
