Owner Comments:

HM-3, R-4. This is another very scarce 1836 variety with only 130 suspected survivors. The obverse has the characteristic die crack running from the 6 in the date up through the left side of star eight. On this example, the crack is most evident in the 6. It has a good strike and a “crusty old gold” appearance with orange-gold toning around the edges. Purchased from Heritage.
