- Lot Description
- 1831 Matron Head Cent. N-6. Rarity-1. Large Letters. MS-65 RB (NGC). Iridescent gray-brown patina allows more vivid autumn-orange luster to shine forth from many areas. This piece is boldly struck from the dies, although the denticulation on the reverse is a bit tight, as often seen for the variety. With a smooth-looking sheen and no blemishes of note, this important coin is among the finest-certified examples of both the issue and the die marriage.
