Lot 942
1849 N-19 R4 PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown. Lustrous mint red fading to steel and olive on the devices, at least two-thirds of the mellowed mint red remaining. A rather large spot of darker toning between stars 7 & 8 is the only significant mark on an otherwise gem cent. There are additional microscopic specks of dark toning sprinkled over both sides, none notable. EDS, die state a, before any crumbling inside the top of the N in ONE. Called MS63 and CC#1 among only 3 mint state examples in the Noyes census, his photo #30531. Our grade is MS64, CC#1 in the Grellman census that contains only one other mint state piece.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
