1793 Sheldon 3 (R-3-). Chain. AMERICA. The variety with the R in LIBERTY high and leaning to the right. Detail of Extremely Fine-40 or better, however there is some evidence of very skillful, virtually undetectable enhancement at areas along the periphery. Toned an attractive chestnut-mauve and exhibiting balanced glossy fields. The legends and devices, likewise, offer excellent definition for a coin of this rare and important type. A truly outstanding example despite its minor shortcomings.
