1817 N-17 R4 F12.
1817 N-17 R4 F12. Fine-12. Sharpness VF25 but cleaned and retoned a slightly glossy light chocolate brown. The surfaces show minor roughness and there are some contact marks, including a dull scratch from the ear to star 2 and a rim dent under star 13. Not an especially attractive cent given the superior quality of this collection, but the die state is quite rare. LDS with a raised retained cud break at TATE. Noyes graded F12 and finest of the late die state in his census (which explains why Mr. Naftzger settled for a less-than-superb example). Our grade is net F12. Estimated Value $1,000-UP. Ex Willard C. Blaisdell 9/76-Del Bland 9/76. Our item number 137462 "
