Lot 702
1851 N-45 R4. MS-60. Lustrous light chocolate and steel brown with traces of mint red showing on both sides. Just a few minor spots from choice, including a tiny one at the hair under star 8, another connecting the feet of the C & A in AMERICA, and a reddish one on the leaf over the E in ONE. LDS, die state b, with an additional fine die crack from the field right of star 4 through the coronet into the field under star 7. A very nice example of this tough variety, tied for CC#2 in the Grellman census.
