Lot 602
1853 N-30 R2 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Frosty medium steel brown and light chocolate with traces of mint red showing on the reverse. Satiny mint luster covers the fields and protected areas on both sides and this cent offers excellent eye appeal. Looks choice but there is a collection of microscopic hairline scratches in the field left of star 11 and a stain on the rim at IT in UNITED. MDS, die state b early. The die lines at the throat and inner curl are dull but still visible and the dull wave through the tops of TES is just starting to show. Our grade is MS60, tied for CC#10 in the Grellman census. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. Pop 4; tied for the finest MSBN examples graded at PCGS for the variety. Estimate Value $400 - UP
