1809 C-2 R3. PCGS graded MS-62 Brown. Frosty chocolate and bluish steel brown with the luster and eye appeal of a mint state piece. Just a hint of rub on the highest points. The only defect is a shallow scrape on the rim at F-AMER. LDS, Manley state 4.0 late. The rim cud break at F-A is clear, a smaller one shows over the M, and another is visible at star 11. The reverse is rotated 10 degrees CCW. An attractive example; tied for CC#4 in the Spurlock census for this scarce variety. Our grade is AU55. PCGS population 1; none finer. The attribution and Davy provenance are noted on the PCGS label. Davy #09.2.5. Estimated Value $3,000-UP. Ex William K. Raymond 9/8/1976.
