Owner's Description

A $727 coin from the 10-19-07 Scotsman auction.<br /><br />James Garcia's catalog description:<br /><br />A pleasing, clean, and bold appearance describes this attractive large cent. Free of any planchet issues and pretty well preserved. The lack of a serif on the date’s first digit specifies a “small date” variety, while the large size of the denomination clearly suggests a “large fraction” attribution. Being of perfect color and practically free of any post mint impairments, the net grade is almost commensurate with the details grade with only a tiny blemish on the forehead and a couple of minute ticks in the right obverse field warranting mention.
