May 2010 Pre-Long Beach Auction #59

详细说明: Lot 247 1827 N-9 R3.PCGS graded MS-63 Brown.Frosty medium brown and olive with lighter brown and tan faded down from mint color in protected areas. The fields are hard and slightly reflective but covered with fine hairlines that are clearly visible on the obverse. A diagonal nick-like pre-striking planchet mark is located just right of the eye and there is a small spot of very fine carbon over the 2 in the date. Sharply struck MDS with the always present die cracks connecting the stars and date (an example with an uncracked obverse is unknown and probably does not exist). The stars have full radial lines, the inner circle segments on the obverse are sharp, and the portrait details are crisp. Fine die flowlines are just starting to show in the obverse fields near the dentil tips. Called MS60 and CC#1 as the only mint state example in the Noyes census, his photo #20927. Bland says MS60 and tied for CC#1 with one other piece followed by a pair of AU examples. Obviously this is a variety that is difficult to locate in mint state. Our grade is AU58. Pop 1; The only example graded at PCGS for the variety. DWH #3537 (PCGS # 36862) . Estimated Value $3,000-UP. Ex Judge Joseph Sawicki, Stack's 2/27/54:653-Willard C. Blaisdell 9/76-Del Bland 9/76-R.
