1804 Plain 4 - Stemless (C-13, R-1) and 1828 Thirteen Stars (C-3, R-1). 1804 Plain 4 - Stemless (C-13, R-1) and 1828 Thirteen Stars (C-3, R-1).
Lot Title: 1804 Plain 4 - Stemless (C-13, R-1) and 1828 Thirteen Stars (C-3, R-1).
Description: Delightful half-cents comprise this dynamic duo. The 1804 C-13 bears minuscule abrasions on Liberty's portrait that indicate very brief circulation, yet substantial hints of mint red persist, particularly on the reverse and there are no real signs of wear. It grades MS-62 BN by commercial standards, with an EAC 55 grade that takes into account the trivial ticks. The 1828 C-3 is a hoard coin, and this one features a full complement of luster and about 10% of the original mint red. A commercial MS-64 BN grade translates to EAC 60 in this case. Two coin lot.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $550.00
