- 1807/6 Draped Bust Cent. S-272. Rarity-5+. Small 7, Blunt 1. VG-10 (PCGS). Marbled deep copper and reddish-rose patina to the obverse, the reverse has a darker, more even, charcoal-copper appearance. Rough in texture with scattered marks, a few light scratches on Liberty's portrait are also noted. The denticulation is more or less absent along the upper left obverse and reverse, but otherwise we note uncommonly bold definition for the VG-10 designation that suggests a net grade from PCGS due to the aforementioned blemishes. The most significant diagnostics of this variety are clear, the digit 1 in the date blunt and the upper left and right corners of the digit 7 solidly joined to the drapery. The 6 underdigit is also readily evident. Sheldon-272 is by far the scarcest die marriage of the 1807 Draped Bust cent, and it corresponds to the well known Small 7/6, Blunt 1 Guide Bookvariety of the issue. The coin offered here certainly represents a significant find for the large cent variety enthusiast. PCGS# 1525. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
