1841 N-4 R1 MS62. Lustrous bluish steel brown with traces of faded mint red on the reverse. There is a small, very light nick in the field under star 10 and a tiny planchet flake right of star 1, as struck. Excellent eye appeal for the grade, close to choice.
MDS, die state c, with a thin rim cud break under the date. The fine die lines above ERI are mostly visible but the ones under the 4 are weak. Tied for CC#3 in the Grellman census. DWH #2014.
Estimated Value $750-UP.
