Lot Description

1847 Hawaii Cent. Medcalf-Russell 2CC-5. Plain 4, 13 Berries. MS-61 BN (PCGS). CAC. Warmly and evenly toned in antique copper-brown, this hard and satiny example offers an uncommonly smooth appearance for the assigned grade. Blushes of pink, powder blue and olive-gold flash into view at more direct lighting angles to further enhance the eye appeal. A thin, shallow flan flaw from the lower right obverse border is as made and mentioned solely for accuracy. With a sharp strike throughout, this is an outstanding BU type candidate to represent this early Hawaiian issue. PCGS# 10965. NGC ID: 2C52. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
