Lot 154
1846 N-14 R2 Tall Date with Repunched 1 VF35. Ten points sharper but there are several dull rim nicks on both sides. Otherwise the surfaces are smooth and the eye appeal is excellent. Frosty medium brown and light olive with a few small peeps of faded mint red in protected areas. Late die state (d) with a clearly defined rim cud break from star 10 to star 11. The earlier rim cud from star 3 to star 4 is weak and the first rim cud below the 18 in the date is not visible. CC#2 of this very rare die state in the Grellman census. Estimated Value $200 - UP
