1845 N-5 R1 PCGS graded MS64 Brown.Very attractive lustrous olive and bluish steel. Satiny mint frost covers this cent and the eye appeal is excellent. Just a few trivial contact marks including a very faint scuff in the field off the nose tip and a tiny tick under the outer edge of the hair bun. Sharply struck with radial lines in all the stars.
