Lot Description

1802 Draped Bust Cent. S-237. Rarity-2. AU-50 (PCGS). Marbled golden and medium brown patina greets the viewer from both sides of this boldly to sharply defined example. Nicely centered in strike with only minor marks scattered about and a well concealed spot at the base of Liberty's portrait above the digit 8 in the date. There is a lot of detail remaining here for a S-237 cent, a feature that will not be lost on advanced early copper variety specialists. Noyes Die State B. PCGS# 36320. NGC ID: 224E.
