Lot 895
1856 N-11 R1 Upright 5 PCGS graded MS65 Brown. Lustrous medium steel brown and light chocolate with traces of mint red on both sides, especially on the reverse. The only notable marks are a puff of darker olive brown and steel toning left of star 12 and another between the 8 & 5 in the date. Otherwise this cent is choice. LDS, die state b. The fields on both sides are covered with radial die flowlines and the short spike up from the left top of the R in AMERICA is gone. Our grade is MS62, tied for CC#8 in the Grellman census. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; none finer at PCGS.
Estimated Value $750-UP.
