1799/8 S-188 R4 Overdate 9 over 8, PCGS graded VF20Glossy chocolate brown and steel. Smooth with light wear and very nice eye appeal. There is no trace of roughness or verdigris, only minor contact marks including a tiny rim bruise under the second 9. A small spot of lighter golden tan toning at the second T in STATES is the best identifying mark. MDS, Breen state II, with die clashmarks but no crack on the obverse. Struck slightly off center to K-4. Graded VF25 and tied for CC#5 in the Bland census. Noyes says VF25 net VF20 and tied for CC#5, his photo #25682. Our grade is VF20+. The date is strong and the overdate feature is obvious. Comes with a great provenance that has been traced back well over a century.Certificate Number: 36131.20/57516992Pedigree: Ex Lorin G.
