 1831 Br.1. (R-4). Choice Brilliant Uncirculated with claims to the Gem category. One of 4,520 struck of this smaller diameter, closed collar refinement of the earlier design. Smooth surfaces are enriched by delightful canary-yellow lustre of the greatest delicacy. A fascinating as-made hollow arc appears in the raised outer rim appears adjoining star 12 on the obverse. Reverse shows two crossbars extending far into the feathers on either side.
From the Lawrence C. Licht Collection.
