1796 S-117 R5+ Draped Bust G6Partly glossy olive brown and steel with lighter brown toning on the devices on the reverse. Light roughness is scattered over both sides and there are several small patches of corrosion with greenish verdigris on the reverse. Not an attractive cent but the date is bold and the legends are clear. The die state is what makes this cent special. M-LDS, Breen state V, with a bold die crack through RTY and a strong cud break at that Y. This is the only example of the die state known to us. Graded VG8 net G5 by Noyes, his photo #32292.Certificate Number: Pedigree: Ex Joseph Kuehnert-R. S. "Robbie" Brown, Jr., Superior 9/30/1986:160-Jack H. Robinson, Superior 1/29/1989:218-Fred H.
