<Our item number 125718><B>1822 N-6 R3. AU-58.</B> Slightly prooflike. Very attractive lustrous bluish steel brown with hints of golden tan faded down from mint color in protected areas. A tiny splash of darker olive toning right of star 5 and another over the E in ONE are the best identifying marks. Sharply struck very early die state with hard, slightly reflective obverse fields. Great eye appeal, just a touch of rub on the highest points from choice mint state. Sold as MS63 in the Starr and Halpern sales and called &#34;tied for finest known.&#34; That claim is a bit optimistic, but the outstanding eye appeal can&#39;t be denied. Perhaps that&#39;s why this cent brought over &#36;1500 in the 1988 Halpern sale. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;1,500 - 2,500. <I><BR>Ex Jascha Heifitz, J. C. Morgenthau 12/22/1937-Floyd T.
