Description
1801 S-218 Cent, VF30
The Rare Three Errors Reverse Variety
1801 1C S-218 R5+, Three Errors Reverse, VF30 PCGS. Dark
steel with lighter steel brown toning on the highpoints. Sharply
detailed and nearly void of marks, but the planchet is covered with
fine roughness. There are a few microscopic specks of fine
verdigris on the reverse, mostly at UNIT, and the only mark is a
tiny scratch on the shoulder. Sharply struck EDS, earlier than
Breen state I, with no die clashmarks from dentils over ERTY. The
only clashmarks are light ones through ERT with stronger ones along
the profile of the face. Clearly this cent was struck prior to the
S-217 variety. Graded VF35 net VF20 and tied for CC#2 in the Noyes
census behind the net-graded ANS example, his photo #38989. Not
seen by Bland. This cataloger's EAC grade is net VF25. The
attribution and COL Ellsworth Collection provenance are noted on
the PCGS Gold Shield label (36269.30/15000055). PCGS population
attributed as S-218: 1 in VF30; 0 finer (10/24).Ex Paul S. Mory, Sr., Bowers & Merena 6/22/2000:129 ($28,750)-COL Steven K. Ellsworth.
