S-10 - S-11c

LOT 10

1793 S-10 R4 Wreath Cent, Vine & Bars Edge VG8 A few points sharper but the field behind the portrait has been smoothed, probably to remove a contact mark since there is no apparent corrosion. Just a few notable marks including a rim dent at K-10 on the obverse, a smaller on right of the Y in LIBERTY, a dull nick on the ear, and a collection is tiny scratches at the rim left of the date and lower curls. MDS, Breen state I. The dentils on the right side of the obverse are still visible and there is obvious swelling in the center of the reverse. The date is strong and the legends are clear. $5,500

LOT 11

1793 S-11a R4+ Wreath Cent, Vine & Bars Edge VG7 Several points sharper but there is a scuff of vertical scratches on the portrait and a collection of nicks in the field below the chin. Otherwise this piece is smooth with just a few minor contact marks. Attractive glossy medium brown and chocolate with lighter brown and tan in some of the protected areas, particularly on the obverse. EDS, Breen state I, before any die clashmarks. The date is strong and the legends are clear. $5,500 Ex Norm Pullen 10/1979-G. Lee Kuntz, Superior 10/6/1991:12 (includes the Kuntz collection envelope and lot ticket)
