1829/7 - O.101 R.1 PCGS MS 62
Frosty luster, obverse and reverse. Fully detailed central devices. Antique grey toning, the reverse lighter. Some toning spots on the reverse survived a dipping (probably in the 1950s or 1960s). The surfaces are free of hairlines. Encased in an Old Green Label holder when offered by Heritage in 2009. Reholdered to add the Frank McCarthy pedigree when the Goldbergs auctioned the coin in June 2011, where lot 806 brought $2,013. Previously attributed as O.101a, the consignor and I agree it is O.101.
Estimate: $1,800 to $2,500
