1803 Draped Bust Cent. S-264. Rarity-4+. Large Date, Small Fraction. Fine Details--Environmental Damage (PCGS).

Well centered in strike, both sides offer overall bold definition at the lower reaches of the grading scale. Medium brown color and a universally rough texture and scattered pitting further explain the PCGS qualifier. A somewhat diagonal die crack (failure) extends from the O of OF down to an area between UNITED and STATES on the reverse rim. A scarce opportunity in this sale for the early copper variety enthusiast to acquire a more affordable example of the scarce and conditionally challenging S-264 variety.

PCGS# 1497.

Estimate: $ 4520
