Losbeschreibung

1798 Draped Bust Cent. S-181. Rarity-3. Style II Hair. EF-45 (PCGS). A handsome piece with even olive-copper patina on the reverse, the obverse with more vivid and varied olive-brown and reddish-copper. Mildly granular in the left field areas on the latter side, yet free of sizeable marks with a remarkably smooth appearance in hand. A very pleasing example with nice surfaces and ample boldness of detail for the PCGS-certified grade. Breen Die State II. Provenance: Ex Gordon J. Wrubel, February 1978; Dr. Allan S. Pirnique; 1981 EAC Convention Sale, May 2001, lot 164; 2001 EAC Convention Sale, March 2001, lot 239; Heritage's sale of the COL Steve Ellsworth Die State Collection, September 2013 Long Beach Signature Auction, lot 4717.
