1803 S-259 R-4 Large Fraction VF35Slightly sharper with smooth surfaces and very little wear, but the toning is uneven, especially on the obverse, and there are some trivial contact marks on the portrait. Glossy tan and light chocolate with small splashes of slightly darker chocolate toning sprinkled over the obverse. Satiny mint frost shows in the fields and protected areas on the reverse. E-MDS, Breen state II, with die clashmarks on both sides, a light crack through the top of STATE, and subtle swelling in the field left of the lower curls. Graded VF35 and tied for CC#7 in the Bland census. Noyes says EF40 net VF35 and tied for CC#4, his photo #26090. Comes with a very nice provenance.Certificate Number: Pedigree: Ex Dr. George P.
