1848 N-22 R1 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Glossy light chocolate and steel brown with underlying very faded mint color peeking through in protected areas on both sides, especially on the reverse where at least 10% of that side shows some of the faded red. A thin nick on the jaw over the throat and a tiny pinscratch over star 11 are the only notable marks. M-LDS, die state d early. The die lines from the leaf to the bottom of the T in CENT are faint, nearly gone, and a dull wave rests on the right top of the D in UNITED. Called MS61 and tied for CC#2 in the Noyes census, his photo #30510. Our grade is MS60+, CC#5 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
