<B>1808 50C MS65 NGC.</B></I> O-102a, R.2. The die cracks on the obverse and reverse of this piece are interesting to contemplate. This is a late die state as usual for the marriage. Both sides are nicely detailed and fully lustrous with brilliant silver surfaces. The obverse is ringed with sea-green, cobalt-blue, and lilac toning, while the reverse is limited to pale green and gold. The obverse has a bisecting vertical crack (actually two cracks that join in the hair) and other cracks. The reverse has several cracks, one that follows the top of the scroll for a short distance before turning downward, through the centers of IBUS on the scroll.<BR><I>Ex: Stack's (10/2004), lot 1377; Stack's (1/2005), lot 2818.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
