The die chip on the reverse, a hallmark of the die and convenient marker for authenticity, is clearly visible on this example. Considerable detail is present although the surfaces have numerous tiny pitmarks and additional microscopic porosity. The surfaces have been burnished or otherwise tooled to diminish the effects of the corrosion. The result of this repair is that some peripheral detail is lacking sharpness. Both the date and LIBERTY are complete, although the top part of LIBERTY is weakened. Similarly, some reverse detail is weakened. This example appears to be a later die state although the tooling obscures some of the die state detail. The surfaces are medium brown with hints of later reddish-orange toning.<BR><I>From The Trevor Whitefield Collection.</B></I> <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Galleries & Auctioneers. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Galleries & Auctioneers, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:30099
