1811 C-1 R4 AG3. Several points sharper with many small pitmarks, a dull dent on the rim below star 13, and a slightly bent planchet. Cleaned bright copper with dark steel and olive toning in the protected areas. Extremely rare M-LDS, Manley state 4.0, with a 2-star cud break involving stars 1 & 2. The date, legends, and cud are all strong. Not the most attractive girl at this dance, but the die state is a very significant redeeming quality. At least 7 examples are known with the 2-star cud break. Davy #11.1.5. Estimated Value $4,000-UP. Ex William K. Raymond 5/1/1976.
