THE TERRY DENMAN COLLECTION PART II

LOT 15 1831 N-1 R1 Large Letters AU55 . A mint state cent that was lightly cleaned and expertly retoned frosty light chocolate and steel brown with traces of faded red in protected areas on the reverse. The portrait is sharply struck and the eye appeal of this cent is quite nice. A tiny horizontal nick under the E in ONE is the only notable mark. M-LDS, die state a, with fine flowlines drawing the stars to the rim and the dentils starting to smear. Called MS60 and tied for CC#5 in the Bland census. Noyes says AU55 and tied for CC#10, his photo #36403. 

Ex Elliot Landau, New Netherlands Coin Co. #52, 12/1958:140-Emanuel Taylor 10/1960-R. E. “Ted” Naftzger, Jr., McCawley & Grellman Auctions/ Goldbergs 2/1/2009:248-McCawley & Grellman Auctions/Goldbergs 9/2/2012:647-Terry S. Denman Collection

LOT 16 1831 N-2 R2+ Medium Letters MS60 . Lustrous olive and steel brown with at least 5% of the original mint red showing, mostly on the reverse. Satiny and choice if not for subtle traces of an old fingerprint in the field before the portrait and a patch of very light verdigris nestled into the berries above the N in ONE. Neither defect catches your eye and this cent has excellent eye appeal. LDS, die state c, with a cud break at star 11 that nearly touches the outer point of the star. A very nice example of this scarce die state.
