Ex Charles Link. Antique grey, tinged with auburn. Unobtrusive scuff between IT of UNITED. Two thin toning streaks run across the portrait. The outside-right serifs of the A’s are missing -- an error in preparation of the working die that landed this die pair in today’s Red Book. The extreme rarity of the issue is probably linked to the hallmark bulge in the obverse die, stars 1-2 to bust. There are but 7 die marriages in this low mintage year. Here is the stopper. The 1820-107 has a poor attendance record at auction. Hammer prices are consistently strong. Do not be shy with your bid. From Heritage’s Dec. 2011 NYC Sale, lot 3570, selling to our consignor, Dr. Charles Link, for $4,887.50.Est. $4,000 to $5,000.
