<B>1796 1C Draped Bust, Reverse of 1797 MS64 Brown PCGS.</B></I> S-119, B-40, R.3. Breen Die State II with light clash marks on the obverse. The small break above the TA in STATES joins two dentils, but no trace of the additional break above AT has formed. A short but bold die line through the upper leaf tip opposite the R in AMERICA also confirms this popular "Nichols Find" marriage. The 6 is entered too high, and its knob partly overlaps the bust truncation.<BR> This is a beautiful tan-brown piece with well struck borders and evenly impressed devices. The satiny surfaces are unperturbed, aside from a small medium brown spot in the field southeast of Liberty's chin, and an even more subtle maroon spot beneath the A in STATES.
