Lot 124
1844 Second Restrike Breen 1-C R6+. Proof 60. An attractive mix of light and darker chocolate browns and medium brown tones. No spots, stains, or contact marks, but there are faint hairlines covering the obverse fields. The fields are nicely reflective on both sides and the mirrors are moderately deep. The best identifying marks are a tiny curved struck through line in the field just above the coronet tip and a tiny planchet void in the dentils left of the U in UNITED, both as struck. Removed from a PCGS slab graded Proof-62 Brown (PCGS label included, and it mentions the Restrike status). Weight 77.0 grains.
Estimated Value $4,000 - 5,000.
