Lot 73
1825 N-10 R3 PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown, CAC Approved. Very attractive frosty steel brown and olive with 20% of the original mint red remaining visible on both sides. Satiny mint luster covers this cent and the eye appeal is outstanding. Nearly flawless. A small spot of darker toning in the field over the outer part of the hair bun and a tiny diagonal nick on the left side of the O in ONE are the best identifying marks, but they are trivial. Rare LDS with a cud break that engulfs the outer point of star 7. Graded MS63 Choice and finest known of the die variety in the Noyes census (no photo). Our grade is MS63. A great cent; one of the highlights of this remarkable collection. The attribution and Ahumada provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; the only MS RB example of the variety at both services. PCGS #36809. Estimate Value $10,000 - UP
Ex Heritage 1/2005:7062-Manuel Ahumada Collection.
