EARLY CENTS AUCTIONS

LOT 444 1853 N-3 R1 AU58. Lustrous light olive with traces of very faded red in protected areas on the reverse. Looks mint state but there is a hint of rub on the very highest points of the devices. A small splash of slightly darker olive toning under star 5 is the best identifying mark. LDS, die state c. The earlier die clashmark hanging down from the hair bun is gone.

LOT 447 1853 N-9 R2- Repunched Date, ANACS graded AU53. Frosty medium brown and light chocolate. Sharp and attractive.
