 1794 S.59 (R-3). Extremely Fine-40. Rich coffee bean brown surfaces are abundantly smooth and glossy, lending a pleasing overall appearance to this significant ''Head of 1794'' type coin. Strike is bold on the overall, but a misalignment of the dies has caused a trifling weakness at the upper obverse and lower left reverse rims. A few minor, ancient pinscratches on the obverse should be noted for complete accuracy.
Ex Estates of Philip M. Mann, Jr. and Glenn B. Smedley (Bowers and Merena, September 1988, lot 3215).
