Lot Number 29

Everybody’s favorite 1818!  The heavy, bisecting obverse die break mimics damage and has led more than one collector astray.  High grade pieces are rare.  Herrman posts a Condition Census that includes but one mint state coin, with an AU 53 at #5.  Here is a pretty AU.  For once the obverse is the favored side, blessed with a halo of iridescent turquoise toning.  Dave Kahn passed this important coin to Tim at the 2012 FUN show.   Estimate: $4,000 and up
