1828 N-5 R2 PCGS graded MS66BN. PCGS graded MS-66 Brown. Beautiful medium brown and light chocolate with underlying slightly faded red covering much of the obverse. The luster and eye appeal of this cent are outstanding. The only notable mark is a tiny swipe of darker toning in the field left of the coronet. Sharply struck E-MDS with a very faint die crack through the top of TED and crisp dentils around both sides. A remarkable cent. Called MS65 and finest known by a full 5 points in the Noyes and Bland census lists, Noyes photo #21216. Our grade is MS65. PCGS Population 1; none finer.
Estimated Value $5,000-UP.
