1847 N-1 R2 PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown.
1847 N-1 R2 PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown. Repunched Date. Lustrous bright mint red fading to bluish steel and light olive brown, more than half the red showing on the obverse, at least 25% on the reverse. Satiny and quite attractive, just a few microscopic planchet chips on the cheek and jaw and a tiny tick on the tip of the nose from gem. M-LDS, die state c. The repunching on the date is weaker but still visible on all 4 digits, and die cracks meander through the top of most of the legend outside the wreath. Called MS65 and CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #31055. Our grade is MS64, CC#1 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
