 FINEST 1816 N-8

LOT 11 1816 N-8 R3 Repunched 8, PCGS graded MS64 Red & Brown, CAC Approved . Beautiful frosty mint red fading to lustrous bluish steel brown, at least 20% of the mellowed mint color remaining, mostly on the obverse. The surfaces are satiny and virtually flawless. A small tick left of star 9 and a speck of darker toning near the dentils midway between stars 11 & 12 are the best identifying marks. M-LDS, die state c, with strong rim cud breaks at stars 8.5-10 and 11-12. The terminal rim cud at stars 3-4 has not formed as those dentils are clearly visible on this example. The repunching over the left top of the 8 is weak but still visible. A bit softly struck on the right sides while the left sides are fully impressed, the result of the die faces not being in perfect axial alignment (die faces not parallel). Otherwise this piece is a gem. A beautiful cent, finest known of this scarce die variety. Our grade is MS64. 36545.64/15104750
