Description
1809 S-280 Cent, MS64 Brown CAC
Tied for the Finest Known
Plated in the 1914 ANS Exhibition Catalogue
1809 1C S-280, B-1, R.2, MS64 Brown PCGS. CAC. Breen Die
State VII showing approximately parallel die cracks slanting down
from the E in STATES to the upper leaves. Both dies are clashed,
and the date is blurred due to worn dies the transferred peripheral
weakness to the last coins struck from that die pair that is the
only marriage of the coinage date, remaining in use for many
strikes. Two deliveries of cents included 47,367 coins on June 3
and 175,500 coins on December 31, with Breen suggesting that cents
of the June 3 delivery were probably all dated 1808. This
exceptional Choice Mint State example exhibits frosty
chocolate-brown luster with blue-steel overtones and splashes of
mint red on the obverse, and chestnut-brown blended with tan on the
reverse. Careful examination is required to find any provenance
identifiers on this amazing survivor.Ex: C.T. Whitman (S.H. & H. Chapman, 8/1893), lot 863; M.A. Brown (S.H. & H. Chapman, 4/1897), lot 814; John G. Mills (S.H. & H.
