Lot 49
1844 N-4 R2 PCGS graded MS62 Brown. Lustrous light chocolate brown blending to darker chocolate on parts of the obverse. Traces of very faded mint color remain visible in protected areas on the reverse and hints of bluish steel overtone show on both sides. No spots or stains, only a few trivial ticks on both sides. A tiny nick on the left base of the N in ONE is a good identifying mark. LDS, die state d, showing fine cracks through the reverse legend and a thin rim cud at star 5. Nicely struck with radial lines in all the stars and just a hint of softness on the tip of the coronet. Our grade is MS60. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; 1 finer in 64 for the variety at PCGS. Estimated Value $400-UP
