Lot Description

1800 Draped Bust Cent. S-212. Rarity-3. AU-53 (PCGS). This is a sharply defined cent overall. Most of the central design elements are fully struck, although the borders are incompletely denticulated around both sides. The surfaces exhibit mottled steely olive-brown and copper-rose on a base of antique gold; the overall appearance is suggestive of an ancient cleaning. The amount of remaining detail makes this a desirable type candidate for the Draped Bust cent at the AU grade level. PCGS# 1449. NGC ID: 2248. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
