Lot 1131
1852 N-20 R3+ PCGS graded MS66 Brown. Lustrous light chocolate and bluish steel brown with at least 5% of the mint color remaining. A faint pinscratch across the bottom of the neck and a spot of darker toning under the E in CENT are the only marks on an otherwise very attractive cent. M-LDS, die state a. The fine die lines of the early state are gone but there are no rim cud breaks on the obverse. Called MS60 and tied for CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #55080. Our grade is MS60+, CC#1 and the only mint state example in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
