Lot 697
1826 N-5 R2 PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown. Choice lustrous mint red fading to medium steel brown and light chocolate with at least 20% of the original bright mint red remaining visible on both sides. The only marks are a very faint hairline on the cheek, a shallow planchet flake on the truncation above the 1, and a bit of fine carbon inside the left half of the M in AMERICA. MDS with a rim cud break from star 5 to star 7. A beautiful cent in every respect. This piece is a new discovery that comes to us from a non-collector family that inherited the cent. Our grade is MS63. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; 1 finer in 65RB for the variety. Estimate Value $1,500 - UP
