1809 O.106 (R-3). Brilliant Uncirculated
|
BU |
$3,000.00

The initial appearance is that of a Choice or better coin, however, the toning belies a past gentle cleaning.

Choice About Uncirculated, and worthy of a premium for the splendid pastel iridescence that graces both the obverse and reverse with vivid teal, russet and gold over shimmering lustre. A later die state with tiny die chips out of the 'N' of UNITED and the first 'S' of STATES. Minor handling marks and random hairlines fail to detract from the desirable quality of this coin. |

CH BR PF |
$19,000.00

The strike is bold on all the obverse stars, Liberty's curls and the eagle's talons, areas poorly defined on regular issue coins.
