Lot 41
1802 S-230 R1 PCGS graded Genuine Unc Details Cleaning. Sharpness near mint state but this cent was cleaned and retoned frosty light to medium steel brown and chocolate with traces of very faded red in protected areas on the reverse. Looks like a lustrous mint state to the unaided eye. There are several faint hairlines in the field behind the portrait, a thin nearly vertical nick on the throat, and two sharp nicks at IC in AMERICA. M-LDS, Breen state IX early, with numerous die cracks on the reverse and obvious die rust on the bust into the field above. Our grade is AU55 net EF45. Noyes says AU50 net EF40 and tied for CC#8. The attribution and Koshkarian provenance are noted on the PCGS Label. Estimate Value $3,000 - UP
