Description du lot

1802 Draped Bust Cent. S-237. Rarity-2. AU-53 (PCGS). A boldly defined, predominantly olive-copper example with a pleasingly smooth appearance in hand. The strike is nicely centered within uniformly denticulated borders, and there are no marks of consequence apart from a few wispy scratches along the lower reverse border that are easily overlooked. Closer inspection, however, does reveal curious pinkish-gold undertones and a somewhat glossy texture that point to an old, light cleaning. Still a desirable example of this die marriage, most survivors of which retain far less detail than seen here. Noyes Die State A. PCGS# 1470. NGC ID: 224E.
