Along with the 1794 S.48 Starred Reverse and the 1803 S.264 Large Date, Small Fraction Large Cents, the 1807/6 S.272 Small 7/6 is one of the most coveted major varieties among Large Cent collectors. The present specimen is a well circulated, yet beautiful example featuring olive-brown devices and darker brown surrounding fields. The surfaces are generally hard and exhibit just minor granularity and are of a higher quality than usually encountered on this variety. The left peripheries of both sides are a bit weakly defined as made, and a couple of minor rim bruises are noted at the lower obverse. Here is the perfect opportunity to acquire a lovely example of this much sought after variety.
