Lot Description

1853 Braided Hair Cent. N-13. Rarity-1. MS-64 RD (NGC). Pretty rose-red color to both sides, the surfaces satiny in texture with an expectably smooth appearance for the assigned grade. Sharply defined in the centers. Dull mark in the reverse field above the letter N in ONE. Almost certainly from a well dispersed hoard of Mint State examples that has made the 1853 N-13 one of the more realistic die marriages in the Braided Hair cent series for high grade type purposes. Noyes Die State C/C. Provenance: From our Baltimore Auction of October 2018, lot 213 PCGS# 1903. NGC ID: 226K. Click here for certification details from NGC.
