Lot 174
1823/2 N-1 R2. Overdate 3 over 2. PCGS graded AU-58. Virtually mint state but there are 7 splashes of dark olive toning on the reverse, and a few of these splashes contain traces of microscopic roughness. Otherwise the planchet and surfaces are choice and very attractive. Glossy steel brown and frosty golden tan with a few peeps of faded mint red remaining on both sides. MDS. The fields are covered with fine die flowlines but the overdate is sharp and there is no dentil fusing on the obverse. Our grade is AU50. Pop 1; none finer. The finest of two graded at PCGS. The other example is AU55. DWH #3139 (PCGS # 36760) .
Estimated Value $6,000-UP.
