Lot 148
1825 N-1 R4 NGC graded XF45. Glossy chocolate brown and steel with frosty lighter steel brown and tan in protected areas, particularly on the obverse. The planchet is smooth and the eye appeal of this cent is excellent. The only notable mark is a fine, old scratch at UNITED, and it blends perfectly into the natural toning. MDS with a clear die crack through the base of the date to dentils on both ends but no rim cud break. Graded VF30 net VF25 and tied for CC#12 in the Noyes census, his photo #56800. Our grade is VF30. The attribution and Rasmussen Collection provenance are noted on the NGC label. Estimated Value $1,250 - UP
