1804 C-11 R2 Plain 4 with Stems VF35. Choice glossy medium chocolate brown with traces of frosty lighter brown toning in protected areas. The surfaces are smooth and display only a few trivial contact marks. The notable ones are a small rim nick over the R in LIBERTY and another shallow rim nick under the right side of the fraction. Great eye appeal, certainly choice for the grade. MDS, Manley state 2.0, with subtle swelling inside the wreath but HALF CENT remains strong. Noyes photo # 73666. Weight 86.3 grains.
Estimated Value $750-UP.
