1845 N-6 R2 PCGS graded MS65 Red & Brown.
1845 N-6 R2 PCGS graded MS65 Red & Brown. Beautiful lustrous bright original mint red, one of the most attractive cents in this remarkable collection. The fields are very slightly reflective thanks to a fresh die lapping and the devices are frosty giving this cent a cameo appearance on the obverse when you get the light at the right angle. The only defects (and it seems harsh to refer to them as defects) are a tiny spot of darker toning over star 5 and a few microscopic ticks on the face, plus a tiny planchet chip on the jawline right of the throat (as struck). LDS, die state d. The obverse die clashmarks have been lapped away leaving smooth fields that are covered with faint die polishing lines. Called MS67 and CC#1 by 4 points in the Noyes census, his photo #31553. Our grade is MS66, CC#1 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $2,000-UP.
