1805 -  O.108 R.4+ PCGS XF 40 CAC

A beautifully toned 1805 from the collection of Tim Osborne, earlier in the collection of Dr. Charles Link.  Last appearing in MB 41 Aug. 2015, lot 2, where it brought $2,209 and was described as follows: Iridescent blue and antique grey toning capture the eye.  Evenly worn with light friction in the fields.  This date is considerably tougher to find (in all grades) than its brethren from 1806 and 1807; price records routinely fail to reflect the disparity.  Est. $2,000 to $2,500.
