1794 S-64 R5- Missing Fraction Bar F12.
1794 S-64 R5- Missing Fraction Bar. Fine-12. Attractive glossy light to medium brown. The surfaces are mostly smooth and attractive for the grade, but there is a patch of very shallow roughness under ITE in UNITED. In addition, there are a couple tiny rim bruises right of the Y in LIBERTY, another at the U in UNITED, and a small one at the first S in STATES. Faint hairline scratches cover the area inside the wreath. None of these defects is especially distracting and the overall eye appeal is nice for the grade. LDS, Breen state V. The die crack through the D in UNITED is strong and extends to the C in CENT where swelling has essentially obliterated ONE CENT. A second weaker but clearly visible die crack extends from the dentils to the right top of M in AMERICA. The missing fraction bar feature is easily visible, although not strong due to the finely cut fraction. DWH #3038.
Estimated Value $800-UP.
