- Lot 127 1807 S-276 R1 Large Fraction. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown. CAC.Frosty medium steel brown and light olive with mellowing mint red covering 5% of the obverse and at least 15% of the reverse. Sharply struck and nearly free of marks. A puff of slightly darker toning in the field over the bust tip and a thin diagonal nick high on the neck near the hair are the best identifying marks, and they are insignificant. The luster is a bit subdued by natural oxidation and a proper brushing could add to the eye appeal by uncovering the underlying mint bloom. EDS but not quite the earliest, Breen state II early, with crumbling connecting three dentils over the B in LIBERTY and two dentils over the right edge of that R. The reverse is rotated 30 degrees CCW relative to the normal head-to-foot die orientation. Graded MS63 Choice and finest known in the Noyes census, his photo #21281. Bland says MS62 and finest known in his census. Our grade is MS63. A superb example of the "Large Fraction" variant of 1807 cent, the finest of the type worthy of the very best Registry Collection. PCGS population 1, none finer.(PCGS # 36452) Value $30,000 - UP Discovered in Europe-B. A. Seaby, Ltd. (London) 1960-Herbert M. Bergen, Quality Sales Corp.
