(About The Images)
1799 (S-189) "perfect date" Fair. 1799 (S-189) "perfect date" Fair.
Lot Title: 1799 (S-189) "perfect date" Fair.
Description: Ex-Stack's, The Autumn Sale, 9/18/2007: 3079. EAC grade is congruent with the commercial Fair-2, given smooth surfaces and unexpectedly nice color for a S-189. The reverse is close to slick with a dull rim bump at 1:00 and two trivial rim ticks, but nary a single mark to detract from the interior of that side. LIBERTY is about 1/3 present, and the date likewise, with only a little raised rim around the entire obverse. Liberty's portrait is entirely outlined except at the extreme lower left, where the hair curls barely merged into the fields. Very desirable despite the low grade just because of the excellent aesthetic appeal. (PCGS# 001443)

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.
