Rare Proof 1840 Large Cent
Ex Twin Leaf Collection 1840 Large Cent Newcomb-2. Small 18 Over Large 18. Rarity-6 as Proof. Proof-60 BN PCGS. The glossy olive-brown surfaces reflect wisps of rich golden-peach in a bright light. Close-in examination reveals some tiny flecks that must have played heavily in the grading process, as otherwise the coin is an attractive specimen with solid physical appeal. All Proof large cent dates can be classified as scarce and elusive at the very least, and the majority of the issues fall into the rare category, as here. This is the second of two examples of the issue offered in the Twin Leaf Collection, where it performed remarkably well – we expect much the same this time around.
