FSHO Vermont RR-3 Colonial

Good evening, all:
On behalf of a retired couple, I have sold a number of small lots of coins that, as non-collectors, they have held for some time. The coin I list tonight is one of their last pieces. It is an RR-3/Bressett 2-B Vermont that can be seen here:
Reverse
Obverse
This coin was the subject of a thread that appeared about one year ago:

Some details and terms:
The coin (which of course is the one pictured via the links) was photographed by me using a Nikon Coolpix 995 with whitebalance adjusted for incandescent. Absolutely no post-photo adjustments were made except cropping. But I will say this. The photo does give the impression of milk chocolate highlights, when in fact, the coin presents itself in person as uniformly dark chocolate under typical room lighting. Thus, in person, the coin displays somewhat less contrast between the fields and the devices than the photo indicates.
Of course, to any buyer, the coin carries a full return privilege, no questions, no delays. As a collector, I know that nothing can stand in for having the coin in hand and up close. The only requirements are the safe return (buyer’s expense) of the coin in as-sent condition, and that the coin be in the mail within 7 days of receiving it. Asking $1650.00.
I would ship a coin of this value by registered mail only (my expense), so it might take a couple of weeks to arrive. I give that estimate because that's how long it took a recent registered package of mine to make it from CT to Indiana.
Please PM me for more details or if you’d like to speak by phone.
