1843 N-16 R4 PCGS graded MS65 Brown.
1843 N-16 R4 PCGS graded MS65 Brown. Mature Head. The obverse is lustrous very faded mint red changing to dark bluish steel and chocolate brown. At least half of the obverse shows the very faded mint red color. The reverse, however, is a lustrous light greenish olive fading to light chocolate brown, a classic "greenie." Both sides are covered with satiny mint frost and the eye appeal of this cent is excellent. The best identifying mark is a very shallow planchet flake on the truncation of the bust above the 3 in the date, as struck. Sharp E-MDS with full radial lines in all the stars and crisp details throughout the designs. Called MS61 and CC#2 in the Noyes census, his photo #31373. Our grade is MS63, tied for CC#1 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $1,500-UP.
