THE BOB KEBLER COLLECTION

LOT 215 1808/7 C-2 R-3 FR2 . A couple points sharper but there is a strong dent and dull digs just right of the D in UNITED plus a few hairline scratches under HALF. Otherwise the planchet is smooth and void of notable marks, just very heavily worn. The date is weak but easily readable and about half of the legends are visible. Glossy chocolate and steel brown. Extremely rare M-LDS, Manley State 5.0. The areas above BE and RT are clearly sunken as retained cuds.

LOT 216 1808/7 C-2 R-3 G6 . Sharpness VF20 but covered with uniform moderate roughness and granularity. Has the appearance of a coin that spent some time in the ground. There is a deep, obvious gouge across the hair right of the ribbon and a less obvious scrape in the field under the L in LIBERTY. Otherwise this piece is free of marks and distractions, no verdigris. Slightly glossy very dark steel and olive. Extremely rare LDS, Manley state 6.0, with strong cud breaks at TY and BE. The section over RT is sunken into a retained cud. Second finest of the three examples known to us in this die state, and our census is 7-6-5 making this one CC#2, slightly ahead of the G5 Lee:258 example. This is the Manley plate coin for the die state (page 191).
