1832 Sm. Lets. -  O.104 R.3 PCGS Shield AU 58

Ex Charles Link Collection, noted on the PCGS label.  Another marriage struck from worn dies.  The obverse was unveiled on the O.103 (see previous lot).  The reverse debuted on the 1832 O.102.  Drawn stars and weak obverse rims frequent this issue.  The coin is best described as Uncirculated, with a trace of cabinet friction on the cheek.  Full luster and unmarked surfaces confirm the fact that the coin never entered the stream of commerce.  Est. $800 to $1,200.
