Lot Title: 1797 10x6 Large Letters (BB-71, B-3). NGC XF-45.
Description: As if stored for decades in a Kraft envelope, both sides have developed deep, dusky salmon-grey patina, inflected by some nicer hints of velvet-blue toning. Add to this a significant proportion of luster, and the coin threatens to break into the AU range! A little too much wear prevents that from happening, but at least the major details are all firmly impressed and remain present, with just modest wear demarked by a shift in color on the high points. Not even one single contact mark can be found without a glass. (PCGS# 040004)
Low Estimate: $7,500.00
