Lot 687
1845 N-5 R1 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Lustrous light olive and chocolate with faded mint red covering 10% of the obverse and at least 50% of the reverse. Excellent eye appeal with only a few trivial marks, including a spot of darker toning at the dentils near star 3 and another over the right top of the T in CENT. MDS, die state a. The obverse die is uncracked but the fields display microscopic radial flowlines that are responsible for the attractive cartwheel luster. Called MS63 and tied for CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #31088. Our grade is MS63 and tied for CC#3 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
