1851 H1C C-1 R1 AU50. Prooflike.
Sharpness very near mint state but the obverse was lightly cleaned and retoned glossy light bluish steel brown with frosty lighter brown toning in the protected areas. The reverse is glossy light to medium brown with mint color remaining in protected areas. Only a few tiny contact marks on the obverse, none notable. Sharply struck EDS, Breen die state I. The fields are reflective, especially the obverse, and this piece has all the die lines Breen describes for the proof strikes (although this one is not a proof). Excellent eye appeal for the grade in spite of the minor defects.
