1828 Curl 2, With Knob -  O.107 R.2 PCGS XF 45 CAC


Only 2 of 23 die pairs in 1828 have a curl 2 w/ knob.  The other, 1828 O.106, is a rare die marriage.  This puts Red Book collectors to the test, converting the R.2 O.107 to a sought after rarity. Decent examples of the O.107 bring double or triple the price of other “common” die pairs of the year.  This example features slightly mottled grey obverse toning.  The reverse is evenly toned.  Luster highlights the stars and most of the legend.  The coin is well struck, free of distractions and original, through and through.  Est. $375 to $550.
