Lot 787
1847 N-24 R1 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Lustrous light olive and steel with hints of faded mint color bleeding through on the obverse and about 40% of the reverse showing faded mint red. The only marks are microscopic and of no consequence. The best identifying mark is a small spot of darker toning under the second S in STATES. Nicely struck EDS, die state a. Die finishing lines cover the obverse fields and the reverse is uncracked. Excellent eye appeal. Called MS64 and tied for CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #31190. Our grade is MS60+, tied for CC#18 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
