1798 S-185 R2 Small 8, Style II Hair VF30Very attractive glossy medium chocolate brown and steel. Smooth with light wear and great eye appeal, but there are some fine hairline scratches on the face, a light scuff at the top of RTY, and a dull but light scratch off the upper end of the hair ribbon. The reverse is choice. E-MDS, Breen state III, with a light die crack from the T in LIBERTY to the rim opposite the end of the nose. Graded EF40 and tied for CC#2 in the Bland census. Noyes says EF40 net VF30 and tied for CC#5, his photo #26050. A nice cent in spite of the few marks, and it comes with an important provenance.Certificate Number: Pedigree: Ex David Proskey-Henry C.
