Lot 1010
1850 N-24 R5 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Choice frosty light chocolate brown. Great eye appeal, but there is light wear on the highest points of the design. The only notable mark is a spot of darker olive brown toning on the rim over the E in AMERICA. MDS. The obverse die is heavily worn from extensive use in the earlier N-18 and N-23 marriages leaving the top of the 0 in the date faint, but the die lines and points on the new reverse die are clear. Called EF45 and tied for CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #30519. Our grade is AU50, CC#2 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
