Description du lot: 1810/09 Classic Head Cent. S-281. Rarity-1. EF-45 BN (NGC). A hard and tight example with richly original copper-brown patina dominating the appearance. A good light source reveals lighter golden-brown in the protected areas around the design elements where mint color was last to fade. Well defined overall with all major design elements bold to sharp, softness in isolated border areas is hardly worth mentioning. The surfaces are smooth and appealing, although close inspection with a loupe reveals light roughness and pitting in isolated areas, and a faint scratch on the reverse to the left of the letter O in ONE. Sheldon-281 is a popular overdate in the challenging Classic Head cent series, offered here in pleasing Choice Extremely Fine. Breen Die State III. PCGS# 1552. NGC ID: 226F.
