1830 Sm. 0 - O.105 R.4 PCGS AU 50
Last seen in Mail Bid Sale No. 34, August 2009, lot 157: A lustrous example of this tough R.4. Dipped a few decades back, now with light grey toning. If you’ve been looking to complete a set of AU 1830s, you know how difficult it is to find this die pair. Tim won the coin for $847. The `30-105 remains a tough die marriage. Note the paucity of listings in Herrman’s AMBPR. Estimate: $500 to $700
