1804 C-7 R4 Spiked Chin VF20. Sharpness VF35 but there are faint hairlines on the obverse, some very tiny pinpricks in the field before the face, and a deep dig (attempted puncture?) right of the F in OF. Glossy steel brown and chocolate. E-MDS, Manley state 3.0. The fine die crack at ATE is just starting to show at TE. The Spiked Chin is clear. A decent example of this tough variety if not for the attempted puncture. Fortunately the mark does not affect any of the devices.
Estimated Value $800-UP.
