LOT 223 1800 S-202 R4+ G5+ . Glossy chocolate brown and steel with slightly lighter steel brown on the devices. Unevenly worn due to the significant die failures. Attractive for the grade, just worn with trivial marks. MDS, Breen state II late, with obvious swelling at the lower curls and D-STATE. Otherwise the date and legends are clear.

LOT 220 1800/179 S-192 R3 Overdate 180 over 179 VG10 . Slightly sharper with too many nicks for the sharpness grade. A dull nick or dent over the E in CENT is the best identifying mark.

LOT 224 1800 S-202 R4+ G6 . Glossy chocolate brown and steel. Smooth with trivial marks, just worn. The only notable marks are two small pits near the rim at the bust and a dull vertical nick on the 8.

The legends not affected by the swelling show details consistent with a much higher grade.
