1852 N-1 R1 Repunched 185. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown. Lustrous mint red faded to light olive and steel on the devices, half the mint red remaining.

Great eye appeal. The fields are smooth and very slightly reflective on both sides. EDS, die state a. The repunching under the base of the 1 is strong and delicate repunching shows inside the tops of the 8 & 5 as well. Called MS63 and tied for CC#6 in the Noyes census, his photo #30808. Our grade is MS64, tied for CC#4 in the Grellman census. DWH #3580 (PCGS # 147233) .
