Lot Description

1841 Braided Hair Cent. N-6. Rarity-1. Grellman Die State b. MS-63 RB (PCGS). Mottled glossy gray-brown patina with ample medium orange luster remaining to both sides. This piece is virtually Choice, as there are no significant abrasions and only a couple of extremely small, faint carbon spots that hardly detract. Thoroughly appealing, and conditionally scarce for an example of this early date issue in the Braided Hair large cent series.
