Lot 631
1855 C-1 R1 NGC graded MS65 Red & Brown. Lustrous mint red fading to olive brown and steel on the highpoints with about two-thirds of the mint color remaining visible. There are faint traces of an old fingerprint in the field behind the portrait; otherwise the only mark is a microscopic planchet flake in the dentils below star 11 (as struck). The reverse is essentially flawless and nearly full red. MDS showing fine radial die flowlines in the fields. A very nice half cent. Our grade is MS64. The attribution is noted on the NGC label. Value $2,000 - UP
