PCGS 1818 AU 58. Normal Dies, Breen-6471, B. 1-A. Scarcer than the STATESOF variety, the 1818 date is definitely rarer than the 1813 but not quite as difficult as other dates in the series. This piece has excellent mint luster, being just a touch of rub away from full mint state. The surfaces are peppered with small abrasions but none are singularly distracting. A bit softly struck in the centers, the coin has even yellow-gold color over both sides. A lovely example of this scarce early gold type.
