1797 NC-3 R5+ Fair-2+Slightly sharper but covered with fine to moderate granularity. No verdigris or marks. Medium steel brown. The details at the bottom of the obverse and top of the reverse are relatively strong because the dies were out of proper axial alignment (die faces not perfectly parallel). Extremely rare M-LDS, Breen state II, with a strong die crack through the top of TES to the rim, and the section outlined by the crack is just starting to rise as a retained cud. Only 3 examples with the crack are known to us. Graded net AG3 and tied for CC#2 honors behind the VG10 example in the ANS Collection in the Noyes census, his photo #26336.Certificate Number: Pedigree: From the Fred H. Borcherdt Collection
