Lot Description

1856 Braided Hair Cent. N-7. Rarity-2. Grellman Die State B-C. Upright 5. MS-66 BN (NGC). Rich rose-copper patina dominates the outward appearance on both sides, but we do note more vivid blue-gray iridescence outlining most of the devices. A glossy, smooth-looking Gem with a sharply executed strike throughout.
