1797 NC-5 R6 VG8+.
1797 NC-5 R6. VG-8 Plus. Slightly sharper with a disjointed, dull scratch down at the O in ONE and C in CENT, plus a few light nicks scattered about both sides. Glossy chocolate brown with darker chocolate and olive brown tones in protected areas. M-LDS, Breen state III late, with clear die cracks at RTY. Good eye appeal for the grade in spite of the minor contact marks. The date and legends are strong except for the 9, which is clear but weakly struck relative to the rest of the date. Called net VG8 and tied for CC#6 in the Noyes and Bland census lists, Noyes photo #23042. DWH #2770.
Estimated Value $4,000-UP.
