Lot Title:
|
1808 8 over 7 C-2, Die State 1.0, R-3. VF-35.
|
|
Description:
|
The overdate is quite clear on this issue, which is usually encountered in low grades. Its medium chocolate brown surfaces are relatively smooth, and it displays prominent definition on the drapery. Some trivial marks and a scant number of surface scratches are present, but not visually abusive. Quite handsome for its ascribed grade.
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.
