1848 N-29 R3 PCGS graded MS62 Brown. Glossy olive and chocolate brown with 10% of the original mint red showing, mostly on the reverse. Frosty mint luster covers the protected areas on both sides, especially on the reverse. There is a very light touch of friction on the highest points of the design and some tiny nicks scattered over the obverse. A faint planchet lamination in the field under star 2 and a dull pinprick between the stem tip and the adjacent A are good identifying marks for this cent. EDS, die state a. The die lines at ONE CENT are sharp and the tiny rim cud often found above star 8 has not formed. Called AU50 and tied for CC#15 in the Noyes census, his photo #55053. Our grade is AU55, tied for CC#12 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $200-UP.
Ex Barney Bluestone auction 10/29/42-Henry C. Hines-Willard C. Blaisdell 9/76 (via Del Bland).
