1852 N-12 R1 PCGS graded MS66 Brown.
1852 N-12 R1 PCGS graded MS66 Brown. Repunched 18 & 2. Very attractive lustrous light olive with sea green and bluish steel overtones. Generous traces of faded mint color show in protected areas on the obverse and at least a third of the reverse displays faded mint color. Great eye appeal, nearly flawless. The only marks, and they are trivial, are a speck of dark toning under star 4, another on the right end of the base of the 2, and a tiny tick on the upper edge of the bust close to the neck. LDS, die state c. Both dies are heavily worn and the die crack from the bust to star 1 now extends to the dentils under star 2. This is Newcomb's old #13 late. Called MS60 and tied for CC#20 in the Noyes census, his photo #30654. Our grade is MS64+, close to MS65, and CC#3 in the Grellman census.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
