- 1800 Draped Bust Cent. S-197. Rarity-1. EF-40 (PCGS). This is an appealing coin for the assigned grade. Both sides have bold definition throughout the design, as well as some sharper detail in the recesses of Liberty's hair and the leaves in the wreath on the reverse. Warmly and evenly toned in deep olive-copper patina, the surfaces are microscopically rough, yet pleasingly smooth to the unaided eye. Despite incomplete denticulation around the borders, the strike is nicely centered on both the obverse and reverse. Sheldon-197 is a readily identifiable die marriage of the 1800 cent, prominent die breaks within the first 0 in the date, from its lower right side, and below the second 0 present in all known die states. The first two breaks give the first 0 the appearance of a Q, S-197 accordingly known to specialists as the Q Variety. This is a desirable EF that is sure to find its way into an early copper variety set. Noyes Die State A. Provenance: From the Xavier Ken Koike Collection. PCGS# 1449. NGC ID: 2248.
