Lot 58
1845 N-1 R4 PCGS graded AU58. A sharp, attractive cent, but there are traces of microscopic roughness and specks of greenish verdigris on the reverse. The obverse is quite nice and has mint state eye appeal. Frosty medium brown and light chocolate. A spot of roughness on the rim over the U in UNITED can help identify this cent. Sharply struck EDS, die state a. The fine die lines from the dentils at star 1 are crisp. Our grade is net EF45, tied for CC#8 in the Grellman census. The attribution and COL Ellsworth Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 3; 1 finer in 64. Estimated Value $400 - UP
