1794 Br.8, C.8 (R-5). High Relief Head. About Good-3/Fair-2. Top of 4 touches bust, and despite the wear displayed, the head of Liberty is bold enough to demonstrate the appropriateness of this variety's nickname ''High Relief Head.'' Dark fields, lighter reliefs, the reverse is especially granular and shows very limited detail.
Ex F.S. Guggenheimer Collection (Stack's, January 1953, lot 13).
