Pre-Long Beach Auction #84

1846 N-14 R3 Tall Date, Repunched 1 PCGS graded MS64 Brown. Very attractive frosty medium brown and light chocolate with hints of very faded underlying mint color bleeding through in protected areas on the left side of the reverse. Essentially flawless; a tiny vertical nick left of the top of the 8 is a good identifying mark but it is barely visible. MDS, die state b. There are faint die cracks at ED-ST but none at AME. The repunching at the base of the 1 is clear. Our grade is AU58, tied for CC#6 in the Grellman census. The attribution is shown on the PCGS label.
Estimated Value $750-UP.
