1855 N-9 R1 Knob-on-Ear MS60. A choice mint state example that was dipped long ago. Now mostly retoned a frosty bluish steel and olive brown with faded red showing in protected areas, especially on the obverse. Looks like a choice Red & Brown example. M-LDS, die state e. The "Knob" break on top of the ear is bold and the branch under the adjacent Y is fully outlined but has not started to rise.
Estimated Value $250-UP.
