1851 N-43 R5 PCGS graded MS65 Red & Brown.
1851 N-43 R5. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown. Lustrous slightly mellowed mint red fading to steel brown and light chocolate on the devices, about 75% of the planchet showing the faded mint color. Excellent eye appeal, nearly flawless. The best identifying marks are a tiny tick on the coronet over the L, a barely visible planchet flake connecting the lower right point of star 13 to the dentils below, and a faint streak of slightly darker toning up to the right from the top of star 13. Sharply struck EDS, die state a. The points from the neck are clear and the spike up from the top of the E in CENT is sharp. A very attractive example of this rare variety. Our grade is MS63+, CC#6 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $1,000-UP.
