Lot Description

1846 Braided Hair Cent. N-4. Rarity-1. Grellman State-b. Small Date. AU-58 (PCGS). Uniform steel brown with some faded tan undertones in the recesses and traces of luster in the fields. A few small handling marks as expected, but none is distracting. A nice example of the die state, but early, with the crack at OF not fully developed. Strong repunching on the digits of the date is clearly seen. Provenance: From Shawn Yancey, 2014. EAC:AU55. PCGS# 1865. NGC ID: 226C. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
