Lot 141
1846 N-10 R5- AU58. Lustrous light bluish steel brown. The only marks are a tiny nick just left of the ear and a tick on the rim at D in UNITED. Sharp EDS, die state a early, with hard, slightly reflective fields, especially on the obverse. The fine die polishing lines on both sides are crisp. A very attractive example of this scarce variety, so close to mint state. Tied for CC#4 honors in the Grellman census. And it comes with a nice provenance. DWH #2049.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
