1800 S-198 R5+ VG7Several points sharper with fine roughness on both sides, mostly on the reverse. No verdigris or contact marks, just a few pits including a couple on the N in ONE and another on the numerator of the fraction. Rather glossy medium brown and chocolate, the obverse darker in the center and lighter near the rim. The obverse is mostly glossy, the reverse less so due to the microscopic roughness. Probably recolored long ago. Extremely rare terminal die state, Breen state VI, with a strong cud break at MER. Called VG7 and tied for CC#6 in the Bland census. Noyes says F12 net VG7 and tied for CC#3 overall but tied for finest known of the terminal die state. Another great die state in the Borcherdt Collection.Certificate Number: Pedigree: Ex Copley Coin Co. 8/1959-Dorothy I. Paschal-Thomas P.
