1827 Curl Base 2 -  O.147 R.4- PCGS MS 62


Ex Tim Osborne.  The surfaces, shrouded in original sunset colors, are impeccable.  (The toning is lighter than the photo suggests.)  Full luster illuminates the fields.  Die wear accounts for the soft obverse rims and drawn stars.  The obverse die, of course, was first married to the more common O.146.  Dick won the coin in my August 2021 Sale, MB 52, lot 34 @ $2,420.  It was part of Tim Osborne’s extraordinary consignment.  Tim found this coin in my bourse case during the January 2012 FUN Show.  Estimate: $2,000 to $3,000.
