 CONDITION CENSUS N-6

LOT 132 1839 N-6 R2 Booby Head, PCGS graded MS66 Brown, CAC Approved . The obverse is lustrous chocolate with bluish steel overtones while the reverse is a lighter shade of frosty chocolate and steel brown. Both sides are very lightly woodgrained, especially the obverse. A small splash of darker steel toning over the junction of the N & E in ONE is the only mark that catches your eye, but there is a tiny spot of carbon in the field over the hair bun and a small planchet chip in the dentils under star 1 (as struck). The surfaces are satiny and this cent has excellent eye appeal. Nicely struck LDS, die state d, with a fine die crack through the D in UNITED to the wreath where it meanders around clockwise until it exits into the bottom of the U in UNITED. Called MS61 and tied for CC#2 in the Noyes census, his photo #21870. Bland says MS60+ and CC#3. Our grade is MS63. (The holder is scuffed and scratched.). 37240.66/13087621

LOT 133 1839 N-7 R2 Booby Head, PCGS graded MS64 Brown . Glossy light bluish steel and light olive brown with slightly faded mint red covering the protected areas on both sides. Several subtle puffs of light reddish brown toning show on the obverse, mostly between stars 11 & 12 and from star 3 to the nose. Attractive mint luster shows under the gloss and the eye appeal of this cent is excellent. There is some minor roughness along the dentil tips at stars 2-6, as struck. Just a few trivial marks including a very light and barely visible diagonal hairline scratch in the field right of star 2 and a short struck-through line over the E in CENT, as struck. M-LDS, die state c with fine die cracks on the obverse and clear die clashmarks over the O in ONE. The left top of the E in STATES is weak but visible (this is lapped off the die in the latest state). Called MS63 and tied for CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #25837. Our grade is MS62. 37243.64/15115717 Ex Desert Coast Coins 6/3/1985-Wesley A. Rasmussen, Heritage Auctions 1/13/2005:3722-Daniel W.
