Description

1800 H10C Fine 12 ANACS. V-1, LM-1, R.3. Attractively toned with light lavender on the devices and a darker violet in the fields. There is a rim depression at 5 o'clock on the obverse, also seen at 2 o'clock on the reverse, which is a planchet flaw and is as struck. The upper reverse has a loss of detail that is die related and diagnostic to the variety. There are no obtrusive abrasions. A nice candidate for a circulated early type set.
From the Robert Knowles Collection.
