Lot Title: 1798 Pointed 9, 4 Lines (B-9, BB-121, R.4). VF details/rim and surface dings.
Description: With the aid of a little imagination, remnants of ancient luster apparently persist within the best protected areas of both sides, but all in all, details are only at the VF-25 level or so. Unfortunately, a number of jagged rim bumps affect both sides, and the obverse suffers numerous tiny digs into the surface. A peculiar waxy substance clings to a few letters on the reverse. (PCGS# 040038)

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.
