1840 N-6 R1 Large Date, Repunched 40 PCGS graded MS65+ Brown, CAC Approved. Lustrous medium chocolate brown and steel with a faint puff of darker toning between stars 7 & 8. Both sides show very subtle hints of lighter brown woodgrained toning and the eye appeal is outstanding. The best identifying marks are a small planchet flake at the dentils under the 0 in the date and another on the rim over the T in UNITED (both as struck). E-MDS, die state b early. The very early die line at the dentil tips over RIC is gone but the recutting on the 40 is sharp and the point to the left from star 13 is clear. A beautiful cent. Noyes photo #37606. Our grade is MS62+, very close to MS63. Tied for CC#13 in the Grellman census. The attribution and Twin Leaf Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; 1 finer at 66 for the variety at PCGS. Estimated Value $1,250-UP

Ex Doug Bird-Gary M. Ruttenberg, McCawley & Grellman Auctions 8/19/1995:270-Jack Wadlington (the Twin Leaf Collection), Stack's Bowers 7/16/2015:2336-Fred Iskra Collection (both lot tickets and Wadlington collection notes included).
