Lot Description

1848 Braided Hair Cent. N-41. Rarity-1. MS-64 BN (PCGS). Satiny antique copper surfaces with faint remnants of pinkish-rose color outlining some of the design elements. Direct lighting calls forth iridescent lilac-blue undertones -- highly appealing. The strike is suitably bold in and around the centers for an 1840s large cent, and the surfaces are expectably smooth for the assigned grade. Noyes Die State A/A. PCGS# 1883. NGC ID: 226E.
