Lot 710
1846 N-4 R1 PCGS graded "Genuine." Boldly Repunched Date. This is an uncirculated cent that presents excellent eye appeal, but close examination reveals it was very lightly burnished. Glossy chocolate and steel with faded red in the protected areas, and the red color has a very natural look to it. In fact the eye appeal of this piece is excellent and it appears to be a choice Red & Brown mint state cent. The only notable mark is a small, shallow low spot (caused by debris on the die) off the left point of star 5. Scarce EDS, die state a, with an uncracked reverse. The repunching left of each digit of the date is bold. Called MS60 and tied for CC#6 in the Noyes census, his photo #31591. Our grade is net AU58, tied for CC#11 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
