1834 N-6 R3 Large 8, Stars, & Letters, PCGS UNC Details, CleaningFrosty medium steel brown and olive. The color looks original and the eye appeal of this cent is excellent. Perhaps a light brushing to remove natural oxidation spooked the graders on this one. Just a few trivial defects including a small planchet flake just left of the date, a line of microscopic ticks on the truncation over the 83, and a tiny curved planchet void over the right side of the O in ONE. None of these marks is significant, and only the flake left of the date is visible to the unaided eye. MDS, die state a, before the triangular lump at the dentils right of star 8. The portrait and wreath are very sharply struck and the fields are flowlined. Graded AU55 net EF45 and tied for CC#10 in the Noyes census, his photo #20121. Our grade is AU50. A nice example of this "Redbook" variety.Certificate Number: 37045.92/30999093Pedigree: Ex R. E. "Ted" Naftzger, Jr., 1989 EAC Sale, lot 345 (as AU55)-Wesley A.
