Lot 246
1837 N-13 R2 Plain Hair Cord, Med Ltrs. PCGS graded MS-66 Brown. CAC. Beautiful frosty tan and light steel brown with underlying mellowed mint red covering the protected areas on both sides. Satiny mint luster covers this cent and the eye appeal is outstanding. The only marks, and they are trivial, are a couple faint hairlines over star 3 and a small puff of slightly darker steel brown toning under the left foot of the N in CENT. MDS. The fields are lightly flowlined, the reverse is cracked, and the doubling on the N in UNITED is still visible. Our grade is MS64. The attribution and Great Pacific Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 2; none finer. (PCGS # 37165) Value $3,000 - UP
