1797 1C Reverse of 1797, Stems, S-136, B-7, R.3 -- Altered Surfaces -- PCGS Genuine. XF Details. Our EAC grade: sharpness of VF35, net VF30. Breen Die State V, the latest described in that reference. This piece has chestnut brown surfaces with evidence of blunt striking on the hair ribbon and on the reverse that is apparently the reason PCGS assigned the "altered surfaces" designation. Called VF35 net 30 in the 2010 EAC catalog, and we agree completely. Many would call the surfaces choice, and in no way are they altered.
Ex: EAC Sale (4/2010), lot 197.
