Lot 128
1844 N-7 R2 PCGS graded MS64 Brown, CAC Approved. Frosty light reddish steel and olive with generous traces of underlying faded mint color showing on both sides. The only marks are a very faint fingerprint in the field before the portrait, a speck of darker toning in the field close to the throat, and a tiny nick just right of the end of the wreath stem. EDS, die state a, without the tiny lump that forms under the bottom edge of the main curl or the rim cud at star 1. The hair details around the ear and the tip of the coronet are not fully struck up, which is typical for this variety. Our grade is MS60. The attribution and Koshkarian provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 2; 1 finer in 65 for the variety. Estimate Value $1,000 - UP
