Lot 900
1856 N-14 R1 Italic 5 MS62. Lustrous steel brown and light chocolate with 10% of the slightly faded mint color remaining. An attractive cent, nearly flawless. A speck of dark toning in the dentils right of star 12 and another at the dentils under the 8 in the date are good identifying marks. MDS, die state b. The strike at the top of the coronet and above the head is nearly full, much better than usual for this variety.
Estimated Value $250-UP.
Ex Don Weathers-Rod Burress 9/2006.
