1809 C-5 R1 Repunched 9 PCGS graded MS65 Brown
1809 C-5 R1 Repunched 9. PCGS graded MS-65 Brown. Often called the "9 over 6 or inverted 9" variety. Very attractive lustrous steel brown and light chocolate with hints of faded mint color in some of the protected areas. A nearly flawless piece that offers outstanding eye appeal. The only mark, and it is barely visible under magnification, is a trail of extremely tiny ticks between the H and A in HALF. E-MDS, Manley state 1.0. The repunching on the 9 is sharp and the lump under the second A in AMERICA is strong. Certainly one of the finest known examples of this popular "Redbook" variety. Our grade is MS63. The 9/6 feature and Carvin Goodridge provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 2; tied for finest of the variety (PCGS #1126).
Estimated Value $3,000-UP.

Provenance: Ex Ray D. Munde-Roger S. Cohen, Jr., Superior 2/2/1992:274 (lot ticket included).
