Lot 830
1853 N-3 R1 Repunched 1 AU55. Choice glossy light to medium chocolate brown. Frosty mint luster shows through in the fields and protected areas and this cent offers excellent eye appeal. Just a hint of friction on the highest points from mint state. A small spot of dark toning left of star 5 and another at the dentils left of star 7 are the notable marks. E-MDS, die state a late. The repunching close over the left base of the 1 is weak but visible and the lump below the 5 is clear. Die clashmarks show clearly on both sides.
Estimated Value $200-UP.
Ex Q. David Bowers personal collection, Stack's 9/30/2010:2449-John Dirnbauer-Doug Durasoff (Stacks lot ticket included).
