Owner's Comments

O-108 (108.3), pronounced VLDS in OGH from MB59 - "Shimmering, unbroken luster is this coin’s calling card. The late die state weakened the stars and dentils. Happily, Liberty’s curls and drapery lines are well detailed. The reverse displays a marvelous vertical die break, rim to rim. Clash marks surround the devices. The demand for high grade 1810s is unabated! This coin has been off the market since the consignor acquired it in October 1991."
