1783 C Nova 1/2P Pointed Rays, Small US, BN MS (PCGS#801)

The March 2013 Baltimore Auction

详细说明: 1783 Nova Constellatio Copper. Crosby 2-B, W-1865. CONSTELLATIO, Pointed Rays, Small U.S. AU-55 (PCGS). 125.1 grains. The deep chocolate-brown surfaces exhibit mahogany-red tones throughout. Low magnification picks up some microporosity in places on the reverse, though the naked eye appeal of the piece is strong. There are no marks to speak of, even under low magnification. Obverse die crack downward from the wreath to the tops of the 7 and 8 in the date. The obverse rim touches the bottoms of the date numerals and the tops of LIB, while the reverse rim crowds the tops of STELLAT. Choice for the grade with an overall appearance that bespeaks quality.
