Lot 105
1854 N-19 R3. PCGS graded MS-63 Brown. Frosty light chocolate brown and steel with traces of faded mint color remaining in protected areas on both sides. The notable marks are a tiny, barely visible scratch at the dentils tips left of star 1, a very shallow low spot on the neck (caused by debris on the die), and a small planchet void on the rim over the second S in STATES (as struck). MDS, die state b, with a die crack that arcs from the rim at star 3 through the top of the head to the rim at star 9. Our grade is MS60, tied for CC#5 with several others in the Grellman census. An attractive example for the grade.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
