Losbeschreibung

This coin remains the finest graded by PCGS and has held those honors for some time. Note the old green PCGS insert, which hasn't been used in a number of years. The devices are well struck and the coin is well preserved. On the reverse we note some red patina, but it is light and not distracting. One old and faint curved scrape is noted from the U in MASSACHUSETTS down to the eagle's neck. Minor weakness at the central devices. Certainly a superb acquisition for the colonial specialist, and a piece worthy of the finest collection. The "horned eagle" is so named because of the die break extending up from the eagle's head, in the shape of a horn as seen on a rhino. <BR>Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,500.
