1814 Single Leaf - O.105a R.4 PCGS AU 55 CAC
A marvelous 1814 Single Leaf. I find no record of it appearing at auction. The eye appeal is head and shoulders above the darkly toned AU 55 CAC I offered back in 2014 (lot 91, MB 39 @ $5,341, reappearing in a March 2017 Legend auction @ $6,325). Shimmering luster graces the silver-grey toning. The surfaces are exceptionally smooth save for a tick, right of the date; adjustment marks in the upper left of the reverse are unusual and fascinating but do not enter a discussion of value. A glance at auction records will tell you that high grade examples of this Red Book staple are rare and in demand. Estimate: $5,000 to $6,000
