详细说明

Ex Stewart Witham and Dr. Charles Link, as noted on the PCGS label.  Early die state, evidenced by heavy die lines around the date and over the cap.  The semi-prooflike surfaces are toned in shades of cobalt blue, silver and amber.  I expect this Condition Census piece to settle in the home of an advanced die variety collectors.  The O.140 die pair is a killer R.4, especially so in high grade.  From Heritage’s Aug. 2010 sale of selections from the Witham Collection, lot 4907 @ $3,450 – a steal in this cataloguer’s estimation.    Est. $2,500 to $4,000.
