Lot 91
1820/19 N-1 R1 PCGS graded MS64BN. PCGS graded MS-64 Brown. Large Overdate 20 over 19. Frosty medium brown with darker steel brown toning on the obverse highpoints. A small splash of darker steel brown toning on the O in OF is the best identifying mark. MDS with fine die flowlines covering the fields, but the overdate feature (2 over 1) is bold and fine repunching is visible on the 18 as well. Excellent eye appeal, but there is a touch of rub on the highpoints keeping this cent from a mint state grade. Called AU55 net AU50 and tied for CC#7 in the Noyes census, his photo #35238. Our grade is AU55. PCGS Population 1; none finer.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
