 Choice $2950 Doubled Die Obverse, Choice Original, Steven Vitale Collection.. This 1873 Double Die Obverse example offers incredible insights into the extensive doubling in the shield as the strike is hammered in the obverse center. The 1873 F-103 doubled obverse die variety was discovered by Kam Ahwash, but not published in his 1981 encyclopedia. This variety is considered as having an R-6 rarity and is infrequently encountered, bringing a significant premium when located. The Vitale example is strictly original with choice surfaces that are toned rose-gray with embedded gold that appears under angled lighting. Though not CAC approved, this lot is significant and should garner aggressive bidding. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder. The label documents the die variety as Doubled Die Obverse.
