Lot 612
1853 N-15 R2 PCGS graded MS64 Brown, CAC approved. Very attractive frosty medium brown and light chocolate with traces of mint color remaining on both sides. The only marks are a thin nick on the rim under the 3 and a couple faint contact marks in the field behind the portrait. Sharply struck EDS, die state a. The die line from the chin to star 3 is clear and the fields around UNITED are smooth (which is quite unusual for this variety). Our grade is MS60+. The attribution and Carvin Goodridge provenance are shown on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; 1 in 65BN.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
Ex Floyd T. Starr, Stack's 6/13/1984:741-Carvin Goodridge collection (lot ticket included).
