1800 1C S-NC-4, BN MS (PCGS#36230)

September 2009 Pre-Long Beach Auction #54 - 9/09 Hawaii Collection

详细说明: Noyes Plate Coin. Ten points sharper but lightly cleaned and retoned an attractive glossy bluish steel and chocolate brown. The surfaces are smooth and attractive except for some shallow pitmarks at MER in AMERICA. Only a few light contact marks, a light nick on the upright of the L in LIBERTY and a couple more in the field just to the left are the only notable ones. Sharply struck EDS, the die cracks behind the portrait are clear but not yet strong. The early die state is unique as all the other examples have at least one large cud break behind the portrait. Sharp doubling slows along the lower edge of the jaw. Called AU50 net EF40 and finest known by a large margin in the Noyes census, photo #21847. Bland says AU50 and CC#1 by a rather obscene margin as well as the next best grades only VG7 in both census lists. Only 8 are known of the die variety, regardless of the die state. This is the Noyes plate coin for the variety. DWH #2804. Estimated Value $20,000-UP. Ex John Rex 9/78-Denis Loring 1/79-R. E.
