Description
1804 S-266c, B-1 Cent, Unc Details
Late Die State
1804 1C -- Obverse Graffiti -- NGC Details. Unc. S-266c, B-1,
R.2. Our EAC Grade VF35. Ex: Mervis Collection. Del Bland
grades this piece VF35 with the sharpness of XF45, and Bill Noyes
says VF30 with the sharpness of XF45. We agree with Bland's
assessment. This piece has smooth olive-brown surfaces with a few
splashes of slightly deep brown patina. Faint pin scratches behind
the lower hair curls appear loosely as the letters JT, as noted by
Bland.The 1804 is one of the three key dates in the early series along with 1793 and 1799. Examples are always in demand and high grade survivors are almost impossible to locate. For that reason, even coins with minor imperfections remain highly desirable.
