1805 H1C C-2 R5 VG10. Small 5 with Stems.
The obverse is not as nice as the reverse, which grades F15 and offers excellent eye appeal and no notable defects. The obverse is weaker, with VG10 sharpness netted down to VG8 for myriad fine scratches covering the portrait. The overall VG10 grade is a compromise that is well justified. Glossy chocolate and steel brown without any hint of corrosion or verdigris on either side. The date and legends are all bold. At the lower end of the condition census for this very rare variety in spite of the scratches.
