1825 N-2 R2. PCGS graded MS-62 Brown. A mint state cent that is covered with attractive satiny luster, but there are a few small, shallow planchet flakes on the obverse that catch the eye and disturb the otherwise outstanding eye appeal. These flakes are located in the middle of the neck, in the field over the bust tip, and on the tip of the nose. Otherwise this cent is choice. Lustrous bluish steel brown and chocolate. M-LDS. A fine die crack reaches from the bust tip and touches the peak of the 1 before reaching the dentils left of the date, another fine crack extends down from the dentils touching the lower left point of star 7 and passes through the I and eye before ending on the nostril, and a light die crack connects the wreath stem to the rim below. The obverse rim cuds of the late state have not formed. Called AU55 net AU50 and tied for CC#13 in the Noyes census, his photo #32145. Our grade is AU55. Pop 2; 1 in 64; 1 in 65. Only 4 examples graded at PCGS for the variety. DWH #3210 (PCGS # 36787) .
Estimated Value $2,000-UP.
