1827 Sq. Base 2 -  O.122 R.5 PCGS AU 50

Deep rose centers, surrounded by multihued iridescence.  Cartwheel luster illuminates the patina.  This is an important coin, barely outside the Condition Census for this rare die pair.  The obverse die of the `27-122 was in its 3rd use, after the O.121 and O.123.  Drawn stars and a soft portrait were the result.  Eye appeal is usually a problem.  Not here!  

Estimate: $2,000 and up
