1802 NC-1 R-5+ F12Slightly sharper but there is a collection of small contact marks near the edge before the chin. Otherwise just a few trivial marks on reasonably smooth surfaces. Mostly glossy olive brown and steel with lighter brown on the devices. Looks smooth but there is microscopic roughness in the fields and protected areas on both sides. LDS, Breen state IV early. The bisecting die crack down through the portrait is clear. Graded F12 by Del Bland and tied for CC#6. Noyes says F15 net VG10 and tied for CC#6, his photo #25908.Certificate Number: Pedigree: Ex Raymond Shab 1950-C. Douglas Smith-Dorothy I. Paschal-Eugene Exman-Denis W. Loring-C.
