Lot 150
1828 N-11 R2 EF45+. Glossy chocolate brown with frosty bluish steel toning in protected areas. Excellent eye appeal for the grade. Close to AU50 but there is a dull rim nick at star 13. Otherwise this cent is choice. LDS. Die wear and lapping have removed the misplaced S right of the D in UNITED and the misplaced O right of the second S in STATES. Removed from an NGC slab graded AU58BN (NGC label #308013-019 included, and it shows the attribution and Reiver provenance). Estimate Value $950 - UP
