1794 C-1b R6 Small Edge Letters F12. Slightly sharper but there are some fine old scratches at the top of the reverse, and a couple of the stronger ones extend down into the top of the wreath. The marks are old and blend perfectly into the glossy chocolate brown and steel toning. The surfaces are mostly smooth but a strong glass reveals extremely fine granularity in protected areas on both sides. No verdigris or other distractions. The date and legends are complete and clear. The Small Edge Letters are bold, and they differentiate this variety from the much more common Large Edge Letters version. MDS, Manley state 1.0, before the bulge at the top of the wreath. An attractive example of this very tough variety, tied for CC#5 honors in the Spurlock condition census and CC#2 in the older Breen census. Weight 99.4 grains. And it comes with a provenance that includes several distinguished half cent collectors. Estimated Value $3,000-UP Ex Kagin's 1977 ANA Sale, 8/23/1977:140-Tony Terranova-Richard Gross-Roger S.
