1851 N-31 R3 PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown, CAC ApprovedLustrous bright mint red mellowing to light steel brown on the highpoints, at least 70% of the original red showing. Must have been close to an "RD" designation from PCGS. Tiny splashes and spots of dark steel toning are scattered over both sides including one inside the bottom of the first S in STATES. A very thin nick in the field under the left edge of star 7, a dull horizontal nick or planchet chip on the jaw, and a short struck-through line (caused by a piece of wire or fiber on the die) close below the outer section of the hair bun are the notable marks. None of these marks is distracting or at all significant, and this cent has superior eye appeal. Nicely struck EDS, die state a, with a short spur to the left from the left side of star 2. An impressive cent, very close to gem status. Called MS66 and CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #30500. Our grade is MS64+, close to MS65, and CC#3 overall but finest of the early die state in the Grellman census. This is the coin that was used to prepare the detailed diagram of the die variety in the Grellman reference. The attribution and Naftzger Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.Certificate Number: 406747.64/18900446Pedigree: Ex New Netherlands Coin Co. 6/27/1962:617-R. E.
