1827 N-2 R3 PCGS graded MS63 Brown
Frosty tan and light brown with darker steel brown toning covering the highpoints on the obverse. Satiny mint luster covers the protected areas. Looks mint state but a glass reveals a touch of friction on the highpoints and some contact marks. The only notable marks are a faint hairline scratch from below the eye down to the right corner of the mouth and a small scratch left of star 5. MDS. The fields are covered with fine die flowlines and the crumbling at the dentil roots from star 5 to star 6 that occurs in the earlier N-1 marriage is thin but visible. Our grade is AU50. The attribution and Holmes provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
