1821 N-2 R1 MS60.
1821 N-2 R1 MS60. MS-60. Light bluish steel brown with hints of iridescent rose in the fields. Those fields are highly reflective and offer fantastic eye appeal. However, there is a dark stain on the cheek where it appears something rested against the obverse long enough to adversely affect the highest points on this otherwise wonderful cent. The stain catches your eye immediately and is a big distraction on an otherwise gem cent. MDS. The die line from the bust tip is gone but there is no crumbling in the dentils at stars 6-7. Called proof in the Bland census. Noyes says net AU50, his photo #35424. We are reluctant to say this is a proof example of the variety, but the look of this piece certainly leads you in that direction. Estimated Value $10,000-UP. Ex C.
