1844 N-1 R1 Repunched 1 PCGS graded MS62 Brown. Frosty medium brown and light chocolate. No spots or stains, only microscopic marks. The notable ones are an extremely faint scuff off the chin, a tiny diagonal nick under star 7, and a planchet chip at the dentil roots over the C in AMERICA (as struck). Nicely struck MDS, die state c early. The narrow rim cuds under the date to below the stars on either side are clear but the fine die cracks at stars 9 & 10 are not present. The repunching at the base of the 1 remains visible. Our grade is MS60, tied for CC#11 with many others in the Grellman census. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label.
