Description

1839 Small Letters XF 40. This is the "Second Design," "New Portrait," or "Type of 1840," whichever school you subscribe to. It is the scarcer of the two varieties as only 12,447 were coined. Some reflective luster is seen around the eagle and Liberty's head, but evidence of circulation is clearly visible with many tiny contact marks and a small edge bump at 9 o'clock on the obverse.
