Date: 1809Sharpness G4 (better in a few places, weaker in others) but covered with moderate roughness on all but the highpoints, which are mostly smooth. No verdigris or notable marks. The devices are light olive and steel brown while the protected areas are a darker shade of steel brown and olive. The date is clear and most of the legends are easily readable. LDS, Manley state 3.0, with a very bold cud break at MERI. Struck with the reverse rotated 30 degrees CCW. Only 4 are known to us in this terminal die state, and none of those are in high grade. In fact only one of those grades better than Fair-2. This is the Fuhrman plate coin for the die state. An important opportunity for the serious die state specialist.Ex Thomas D.
