Description du lot

1849 Braided Hair Cent. N-20. Rarity-1. Grellman Die State A. MS-66 BN (NGC). A glossy-textured Gem, both sides exhibit subtle lilac highlights to otherwise dominant medium-copper patina. At more direct angles we can also discern faint traces of faded-pink luster in isolated areas, mostly around the devices. Bold-to-sharp in strike, and silent on the subject of significant blemishes.
