Lot 342
1839 N-4 R1 Silly Head PCGS graded MS63 Brown. Glossy medium chocolate brown delicately mottled with lighter brown tones, especially on the reverse. Satiny mint frost covers the fields and protected areas and this cent offers excellent eye appeal. Looks mint state but there is a light touch of rub on the highest points of the devices. The best identifying marks are a curved hairline scratch over the 3 in the date and a dull scratch well hidden between the hair bun and star 10. MDS. The dash near the dentil tips left of the date is gone but the one near the dentils right of the 9 is still visible, although it is weak. Our grade is AU55. The attribution and Heard provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 2; 5 finer, 1 in 64, 3 in 65, 1 in 66 for the variety. PCGS #37231. Estimate Value $750 - UP
