Lot 934
1849 N-12 R1 PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown. Lustrous bright mint red fading to steel brown on the highpoints, about 75% of the original color remaining. Great eye appeal, just a few trivial marks from flawless. These include a thin vertical nick on the jaw above the throat and tiny specks of darker toning scattered over the obverse plus two more at the E in CENT. E-MDS, die state a. The fine die lines over UN in UNITED are dull but clearly visible. Called MS65 and CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #30594. Our grade is MS65, CC#1 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $2,000-UP.
