1854 N-19 R3+ MS62.
1854 N-19 R3+ MS62. Lustrous bluish steel brown with 10% of the mint color showing on the obverse, a third remaining on the reverse. A choice example if not for a couple minor contact marks, including a thin vertical nick above star 2, a tiny nick close under the chin, and a small spot of dark toning at the dentils right of star 9. A pair of shallow low spots or planchet flakes are located just above the bisecting crack left of star 8, as struck. MDS, die state b. The bisecting obverse die crack is clear but not strong and the reverse is rotated 105 degrees CCW. CC#2 overall but finest of only a very few known with a rotated reverse. Removed from an NGC slab graded MS65BN (NGC label included, and it shows the attribution and Reiver provenance). DWH #3019.
Estimated Value $400-UP.
