THE TERRY DENMAN COLLECTION PART II
LOT 39 1833/2 N-4 R4 Overdate 3 over 2, PCGS graded MS64 Brown . Choice lustrous steel brown and light olive with 10% of the obverse and about a third of the reverse showing mellowed mint red. The only marks are a collection of very light scuffs in the field before the forehead and a sharp diagonal nick mid-jawline. The reverse is flawless and worthy of “gem” status. E-MDS, die state b, with the usual fine die cracks through the date and lower stars but not yet through stars 4-7. The very fine repunching at the left top of the second 3 is visible (sometimes referred to as a 3 over 2 overdate). This is the Newcomb plate coin for the variety (Plate VII, Obverse 4, Reverse A). Graded MS63 and tied for CC#2 in the Noyes census, his photo #20930. Bland says MS63 and tied for CC#2 as well. Our grade is MS62+, close to MS63. A very attractive example of this tough variety, and it comes with an impressive provenance. (The front of the holder is scratched.). 37027.64/83245074 Ex Howard R. Newcomb, J. C. Morgenthau & Co., 5/16/1945:643-Floyd T. Starr, Stack’s 6/13/1984:274-Herman Halpern, Stack’s 3/16/1988:434-R.

LOT 40 1833 N-5 R1 Repunched 8, PCGS graded MS65 Red & Brown . Lustrous mint red blending to bluish steel and olive brown with about a third of the mint color remaining on each side. A speck of dark toning in the hair under star 7, an arcing hairline in the field before the mouth, and a few tiny specks of dark toning under the wreath are the notable marks. Only the small spot in the hair catches your eye. Otherwise this cent is satiny and virtually flawless. M-LDS, die state b late, with the repunching on the top of the 8 weak but still visible (the “Horned 8”). Struck with the reverse rotated 40 degrees CW. Called MS63 and tied for CC#5 in the Noyes census, his photo #21562. Our grade is MS64. 37031.65/13072519
