This 185 year old specimen has attractive multi-colored toning on both sides. This obverse die was only used for the present marriage. The obverse has several prominent die cracks, joining and crossing others. This is almost certainly approaching terminal die state. A faint crack over the cap joins stars 8 through 10 to the border over star 12.
Another very faint crack joins stars 11 through 13 to the field below. Clash marks by Liberty's ear. A heavy crack joins border to hair curl passing left of star 13 and crossing the crack through stars. This die crack crosses the drapery to the hair curl on Liberty's neck. A prominent die crack from border to drapery passes through Liberty's neck and cheek to the B of LIBERTY and cap above.
A branch of this crack passes through R and the cap to the border above star 7, crossing the first crack above. Reverse die was also used for 1836 B-4. The reverse has a bisecting crack through left side of F to neck, shield, claw, and olive leaves, returning to the border. Another crack through the right upright of U and the left wing, joins the first crack in the shield.
Lovely lavender-gold, mint-green, and blue-gray hues adorn the surfaces. Pictures are taken of the actual coin you will receive and should be used to grade for yourself. Grading is subjective, even for highly rated grading services. PLEASE SEE ALL OF MY GREAT COIN LISTINGS.
