1800 NC-6 R6+ Overdate 800 over 798 VG7
A few points sharper but covered with fine granularity. No verdigris and the only marks are a minor rim bruise left of the date and a small rim nick off the upper edge of the hair ribbon. Slightly glossy medium chocolate and steel brown with slightly lighter steel brown on the devices. The date and legends are complete and strong for the grade. The repunching on the base of the F in OF is clear. Graded VG10 net VG7 and tied for CC#2 honors in the Noyes census, his photo #25345. Bland says VG8 net G6. A quite decent example of this very rare variety.
