1848 N-26 R4+ PCGS graded MS63 Brown.
1848 N-26 R4+ PCGS graded MS63 Brown. Glossy medium brown and light chocolate with darker olive brown in protected areas around the devices. Frosty mint luster shows under the glossy toning in protected areas on the reverse. This cent offers outstanding eye appeal, and Ted suggested that the fields were prooflike, which is not out of the question. The only mark is a tiny planchet chip in the field right of the inner curl, as struck. Very sharply struck except for minor weakness on the E in CENT, as on all of this die variety. E-MDS, die state b. The diagonal die lines at ONE and CENT are clear but they do not extend beyond those letters. Called AU50 and CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #30462. Our grade is AU50, CC#1 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
