1839 N-14 R3 Booby Head, PCGS graded MS66 BrownFrosty steel and light olive brown faded down from mint color with faded original red in protected areas, especially on the reverse where about 25% of that side has faded original color. This cent is a solid gem except for a dull nick or shallow scuff in the field close to the brow lock, a few very tiny ticks on the coronet over LI, and a small spot of fine carbon under the E in CENT. There are numerous fine raised die lines on the cheek from microscopic scratches on the die, as always on this variety. E-MDS, die state a. Nicely struck with satiny surfaces and great eye appeal.. Most of the stars show full radial lines and all the dentils are well defined. The reverse is lightly cracked, as always, and the short bar down from the dentils over the upright of the R in AMERICA is clear. Called MS65 and tied for CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #21603. Bland says MS65 and CC#3. Our grade is MS64.Certificate Number: 37255.66/13087632Pedigree: Ex Carl Wurtzbach-Robert J.
