1817 N-13 R1 MS60+. Partial Double Profile.
1817 N-13 R1 MS60+. Partial Double Profile. MS-60+. Glossy bluish steel with satiny luster covering both sides. A very thin layer of lacquer protects the surfaces. The only mark is a tiny nick right of star 3. Both sides display attractive cartwheel luster and the eye appeal of this piece is excellent. E-MDS. The dentils are strong and complete, and a clear die line connects the bases of the I & C in AMERICA. Clear double profiles show along the top of the coronet over the L and on the lower half of the nose, a result of die bounce. Most likely from the Randall Hoard of mint state middle date cents. DWH #0428.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
