Description

1804 1C S-266, B-1, R.2 -- Damaged -- NGC Details. VG. Breen Die State IV, also known as S-266c, with rim breaks on both sides. The three major die states of 1804 large cents are usually designated as S-266a, 266b, and 266c, although only one of these is necessary for a Sheldon cent, unlike the edge subvarieties of 1793, 1794, 1795, and 1797 that are normally included in a complete set of Sheldon varieties. This piece has several moderate surface dents on each side blended with the otherwise smooth chocolate-brown surfaces. Our EAC grade Good 4. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
