Description

1827 50C Square Base 2 Genuine PCGS. O-108a, Low R.4. This is the second marriage (or remarriage) of 1827 O-108, and it was struck after 1828 O-101 that shares the same reverse die.
The dots beneath IT in UNITED are gone, and a die chip fills the upper part of the F in OF. The die chip first appeared while the reverse was used for 1828 O-101.
AU50 Details, Cleaned. Light silver-gray surfaces retain considerable luster, despite the minor cleaning lines. Wispy champagne toning is visible on both sides, with splashes of blue iridescence. A small planchet crack is noted near the top of the obverse and bottom of the reverse.
