Lot 1059
1851 N-23 R3 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Glossy light olive and chocolate brown with underlying satiny mint luster that covers the fields and protected areas. No spots or contact marks, just a very light touch of friction on the highest points. A shall low spot covers the neck and other low spots are located inside the wreath, all a result of debris on the dies. LDS, die state b. The die lines seen at TA in STATES in the early state are gone. Not graded by Noyes, his photo #55132a. Our grade is AU58+, very close to MS60, and CC#8 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
