Lot 526
1846 N-10 R4 AU55. Mint state sharpness but cleaned and retoned light chocolate brown and steel with traces of reddish steel brown and tan in protected areas on the obverse. The only mark is a tiny planchet flake on the cheek and an even smaller one high on the neck, both as struck. Very sharply struck EDS, die state a. CC#6 in the Grellman census. And it comes with an important provenance.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
