1809 -  O.103 R.1 PCGS Shield AU 58 CAC

Untoned with blinding luster.  Well struck with 13 stars showing center-points and the eagle’s head and left wing displaying only slight weakness.  There are virtually no marks on the surface.  Though CAC is known to disfavor brilliant coins the luster, strike, surfaces and eye appeal of the coin are simply irresistible.   Estimate: $2,500 to $3,500
