1847 N-7 R2+ F15. Glossy light olive and steel blending to chocolate brown in protected areas. No roughness, only small nicks, none notable. Extremely rare LDS, die state d, with a new rim cud break from star 11 to star 12, and the margins of this cud are clearly defined. The earlier rim cud from star 1 to under the right edge of the adjacent 1 in the date is weak but still visible. CC#2 of only 3 known in this intermediate die state. And it comes with a very impressive provenance.
