Lot Description

The lightly toned centers are framed by a halo of electric blue and turquoise toning inside the stars and legend.  The surfaces are nearly pristine.  I note one contact mark on the neck, nothing in the fields.  Friction?  VERY hard to find.  A nice example of this Red Book variety.  Just 2 of 49 die pairs in 1827 have a curl base 2.  Est. $1,000 to $1,300.
