Lot 363
1833 N-6 R1. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown. CAC. Choice frosty olive brown and steel with bright mint red covering 20% of the obverse and 35% of the reverse. Satiny mint luster covers this cent and the only notable marks are a microscopic struck-through line up from the top of the outer hair bun (as struck) and a very faint trace of an old fingerprint at MERI. M-LDS with two die cracks through the bottom of the N in UNITED, but the section between these cracks has not become a raised cud. Graded MS63 and tied for CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #27336. Bland says MS64. Our grade is MS63+, close to MS64. A great cent that comes with an impressive provenance. The attribution and Nancy & Bryan Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; the finest in RB at PCGS. (PCGS # 37034) Value $8,000 - UP
