Lot 62
1832 Coronet Head Cent. MS-64. Brown. N-2. Scarcest of the three varieties listed for this date by Newcomb. The consigner removed this from the slab he purchased it in, and the NGC MS64 BN tag comes with the lot. This beauty has cartwheel brown luster with mere "ghosts" of some red mint bloom behind the toning. The strike is also delightful, deeply impressed on the reverse and with Liberty bold but the surrounding stars mostly flat in the centers. A clasic diebreak connects stars 5 through 10. Whatever number grade viewers might decide to assign for themselves, this coin shimmers with luster and has exquisite eye-appeal.
Estimated Value $500 - 750.
