Lot 864
1848 N-20 R3- PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown. Repunched 48. Frosty bright mint red fading to steel and light olive brown on the devices, half the red remaining. The only mark of any significance is a small spot of very fine carbon at the dentils over star 11. Excellent luster and great eye appeal. Sharply struck with full radial lines in all the stars and fully impressed devices throughout. MDS, die state b. The tops of the C & E in CENT are joined by crumbling, but the repunching on the 48 remains clear. Called MS63 and CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #30559. Our grade is MS64, CC#1 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
