1848 N-28 R1 PCGS graded MS65 Brown. Steel and light chocolate brown with 15-20% of the mint red showing. Excellent luster and eye appeal. The fields are satiny and show only a few trivial marks, including a very faint splash of reddish brown toning in the field right of star 3 and a thin diagonal nick between star 4 and the nose. E-MDS, die state a. The fields are starting to show microscopic radial flowlines that create attractive cartwheel luster and the die lines between ON in ONE and EN in CENT are clear. Called MS65 and tied for CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #30459. Our grade is MS62+, close to MS63, and CC#6 in the Grellman census.
