Rothchild Counterfeit Houston Money Show Auction January 20, 2024

LOT 189 1828 N-2 R2 VF35+. Very attractive glossy light chocolate and steel brown with lighter brown and tan in protected areas. Very close to EF40. There are a few small marks including a dull tick in the field at the throat, another high on the cheek, a small nick left of star 13, and a small planchet flake under the line below CENT. None of the marks is significant and this cent has excellent eye appeal. MDS, Grellman state b. The die line between the 2 & 8 is clear but it no longer touches the 2.

LOT 188 1828 N-1 R1 F15+. Slightly sharper with a rim bruise at the E in UNITED. Otherwise the only notable mark is a planchet flake on the rim at star 10 (as struck). Attractive glossy light to medium chocolate and steel brown with tan in protected areas. MDS.
