Lot 146
1823 Private Restrike PCGS graded MS66BN. PCGS graded MS-66 Brown. Very attractive iridescent bluish steel and light chocolate brown with slightly faded original red covering the protected areas, enough red that a Red & Brown designation seems more appropriate. Virtually flawless, a bit of slightly darker toning on star 3 the best way to identify this piece. Late die state with two die cracks on each side. The fields display ample prooflike surface and the eye appeal is outstanding. Noyes photo #21674. Our grade is MS65. PCGS Population 4; none finer.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
