1854 N-22 R4 MS60+. Lustrous light bluish steel brown with 15% of the mint red remaining, mostly on the obverse. Choice except for a shallow dig at the left side of the E in ONE.
M-LDS, die state b. The dash from the right top of the 4 is gone and the fields are flowlined. A shallow low spot covers most of the cheek and extends slightly down into the neck. The hair at the ear is not affected but the earlobe is weakened a bit by the low spot. Great eye appeal for the grade. Tied for CC#9. DWH #2344.
Estimated Value $300-UP.
