975 1810 B.1, C.1 CH EF $240.00

Extremely Fine-40. Chestnut-brown fields and design features are free of any defects requiring particular note; 1829 B.1, C.1. Choice Extremely Fine-45.

Very Fine-25 and perhaps a bit better. This reverse is measurably off-center, wear is trouble-free and complements this pleasing coin's remarkable glossy deep chestnut brown patina.

About Uncirculated-50. The underlying '6' was punched into the die on its back and partly effaced before the punching of the definitive digit. Delightful tan-brown patina distinguishes the smooth, glossy surfaces. Here is a specimen that is very high grade for the variety.
