Description du lot

Later die state, with clash marks and die breaks through the stars and legend.  Loads of “flash” for this often low-luster issue.  Crisp dentils and sharply impressed stars frame the smooth, lustrous fields.  Lightly toned, a bit darker at the peripheries.  This coin recently surfaced in an eastern collection, having been off the market for many years.  Choice AU examples of the 1807 small and large stars remain in great demand.  Est. $5,000 to $6,000.
