1798 10C Large 8, JR-4, R.3, VF25 PCGS. This variety has 13 stars on the reverse, and a small 7 paired with a large 8 in the date. Lovely steel and gold-colored centers are encircled by violet and russet toning on the obverse, with only a hint of deep purple on the mostly steel-colored reverse. Light silver-gray toning is present in the protected areas, particularly on the reverse. Minimal amounts of luster can still be seen in the obverse field. There are no marks of any significance and a pronounced die crack begins at Liberty's chin. A low mintage of 27,550 pieces includes all four varieties for this year.
Ex: Baltimore Signature (Heritage, 7-8/2008), lot 56.
