$3150 		Large Eagle Reverse, Robert Scot Engraver, Low Mintage Date, Near-Gem at Grade, CAC Approval. There are certain desirable early type coins that don't often appear in the market place. 1801 and 1802 Draped Bust halves are an example. What a delight when this near-gem original 1801 O-102 specimen walked up to the GFRC table at the Whitman Baltimore show. An example that is exceptionally well preserved with unabraded fields. Natural crusty gray patina covers the fields on both sides while the main device wear points are lightly colored. One could say this piece has a partial circulated cameo appearance and eye appeal. Accurately grade and housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 Dupont hologram holder with CAC approval. I just can't see this special example lasting long on the GFRC price list. December 1969
