Lot Title: 1803 Large 3 (O-103) XF/polished.
Description: Courteous Collection of Early Type. Were this an early copper, it might be called "burnished", as some of the detail has been softened via vigorous cleaning. Dull grey texture now lies atop the high points in contrast with the overall beige patina. (PCGS# 006066)

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: $300.00
High Estimate: $600.00
Lot Status: Bidding has been closed for this lot.

1803 Large 3 (O-102) VF/cleaned.
Courteous Collection of Early Type. Aggressive cleaning likely was the cause for some odd glowing undertones, now endowed with silver-orange patina. VF-20 details apply even though the reverse motto...

1803 (O-103) VF.

1803 (O-104) VF.
Courteous Collection of Early Type. VF-25 sets a nice compromise for obvious central sharpness, tantalizing hints of cartwheel texture and some pleasant khaki-grey patina. A pleasing "small 3"...
495The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$750.00
1803 (O-104) XF/scratched.

1803 Large 3 (O-103, R.3) PCGS VF-25.
Sharpness may be a little better than average for VF-25, which compensates for the slightly pale appearance offered by minimal, delicate ivory-grey patina. The eagle's wings offer strong definition...

1803 (O-103, R.3) VF.

1803 Large 3 VF.
CONSIGNOR: You know, this was the earliest date I could really afford for the set. 1801 and 1802 are so high. Look at how these match up [comparing to 1807 draped bust]! CATALOGER: The Forest Park...
513The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$825.00
1803 O-101 VF-35.
A patient search for cartwheel luster reveals only the faintest hints of flowline luster, slightly more so on the reverse, and the overall appearance is that of a coin right on the cusp of grading...

1803 O-102a Large 3 XF-45.
