Owner Comments:

CAC, HM-2, R-4+. This is a very scarce 1836 variety with only 100 suspected survivors. As with most examples of this variety, there are vertical die cracks on both t obverse and reverse. Pleasing honey-gold surfaces exhibit tinges of pale olive as the coin rotates under a light. Boldly defined overall with appreciable luster remaining. Stack’s Bowers 8/20: 1335.
