1831 N-11 R2 Medium Letters, PCGS graded MS63 BrownFrosty light tan faded down from mint color with steel brown on the highpoints. Mint luster covers the fields and protected areas and this cent has very nice eye appeal. The only distractions are a couple puffs of darker toning before the neck and chin plus similar toning at UNITED and the second A in AMERICA. Looks mint state but there is a light touch of friction on the highest points of the portrait. Terminal die state, state g. The cud break at TES is complete with the top of stat S filled, and there is a small rim cud connecting three dentils at star 2. Graded AU55 net AU50 and tied for CC#12 overall but second finest of the terminal die state in the Noyes census, his photo #69540. Our grade is AU55.
