Lot Title: 1798 Point 9 Close Date (B-30, BB-116, R.5). XF/obverse spots..
Description: Legitimately rare, B-30 is characterized by numerous die cracks on both sides, the obverse cracks carried over from use of that die in B-31 (which was actually struck before B-30). This strangely slate-grey example displays three prominent black spots on Liberty's portrait, as well as (unfortunately) harshly cleaned surfaces.

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: $1,800.00
High Estimate: $1,950.00
