<B>1827/6<50C> MS66 NGC.</B></I> O-102, R.1. The underdigit 6 is bold, with curves above and to the right of the prominent 7. A gorgeously toned and lustrous Gem. Golden-brown, olive, and slate-gray colors provide substantial eye appeal, and the surfaces are impressively undisturbed. The major devices and the reverse border are well struck, while stars 7 through 13 are slightly soft in the centers. The 1827/6 obverse was paired with three different reverse dies. Overton-102 is distinguished by a slender die break after the final A in AMERICA, whimsically referred to as an "apostrophe" by die researcher Glenn Peterson. A splendid example of this popular <I>Guide Book</B></I> variety that is only exceeded by the Eliasberg specimen, which has been encapsulated as MS67 by NGC.
