Lot 967
1849 N-29 R2 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Frosty light bluish steel and chocolate brown with generous traces of mint color showing on the obverse. Excellent luster and eye appeal, just a few light contact marks from choice. The notable marks are a trio of light nicks in the field right of star 3, a long but very thin nick on the throat, and a couple tiny ticks on the rim over ICA. Nicely struck M-LDS, die state d. The die lines at the neck are weak but still visible, the cud breaks under the date and star 13 are clear, and the die line at NI is not present. Called MS60 and tied for CC#5 in the Noyes census, his photo #30476. Our grade is MS60+, tied for CC#4 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
