1832 - O.114 R.4+ PCGS MS 62
A gorgeous example of this noted rarity. From the Davignon collection, acquired from Dr. Link during the 2010 ANA Convention in Boston. This is the 2nd or 3rd finest know of the variety. Lustrous surfaces are painted with colorful, iridescent shades of amber, russet and turquoise. The surfaces are excellent; I see only miniscule signs of contact. The obverse die, appearing first on the O.113, was nearing its end when married to a new reverse. Weak rims and drawn stars are mandatory. A quick key for cherry pickers is star 9. It is the only one with a point. The others are flat. Est. 3,000 to $4,000.
