 1804 Br.7, C.8. Spiked Chin, Close Fraction. Easily Choice About Uncirculated-55 or better. Glossy light tan dominates the surfaces, with a scattering of minor carbon specks on both sides. Sharply struck by the dies for this middle die state, there being an obverse die crack through the tops of LIBERTY and a reverse crack from the top of the 'R' in AMERICA to the rim. Identifiable by an inconsequential thin scratch crossing Liberty's neck into the right obverse field. Strong eye appeal for this issue.
Ex Stack's Public Auction of November 15, 1968, lot 463.
