1843 N-9 R3 Petite Head, Small Letters Repunched 843 PCGS graded MS64 Brown, CAC. Frosty medium steel brown and chocolate with 10% of the mint red remaining on both sides. Satiny and very attractive, void of any spots or stains. The notable marks are a very shallow planchet flake in the field before the nose and a smaller flake over the right corner of the eye (both as struck). LDS, die state c, with several rim cud breaks on the obverse and a smaller rim cud break over the U in UNITED. The repunching on the 843 is dull but remains visible. A very nice example of a die variety that is difficult to find in high grade. Our grade is MS62+, close to MS63, and CC#3 for the variety in the Grellman census. The attribution and Iskra provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; none finer for the variety at PCGS. Estimated Value $1,500-UP

Ex Heritage Auction #1138 (Feb-Mar 2010), lot 150-Chris McCawley 1/18/2012-Fred Iskra Collection.
