Vibrant luster is the calling card of this brilliant 1808. Flecks of russet toning at the peripheries suggest album storage, followed by a careful dipping. The otherwise smooth, uncleaned surfaces are distinguished solely by clash marks and a hallmark obverse die break extending from 6 to 12 o’clock. A nifty coin for the date collector. I note that the PCGS Price Guide suggests $6,000 for the assigned grade. Somewhat generous, I’d say.Estimate: $3,500 to $4,000
