Lot 718
1841 N-1 R5. PCGS graded Proof 65 Brown. A proof-only variety. Medium brown. A speck of carbon off the lower left point of star 12 and a faint vertical pre-striking planchet void in the field before the nose are the only marks on otherwise flawless surfaces. This cent is covered with a thin layer of natural oxidation that dulls the surfaces and reduces the reflectivity of the fields. Nonetheless, you can see the underlying mirrors when you rotate the coin in the light and professional conservation may uncover a gem cent. Our grade is Proof-62. Comes in an old PCGS holder with a green label. PCGS population 1 with none higher.
Estimated Value $12,000 - 16,000.
