1840 1C Small Date, BN MS65BN 认证号81898602, PCGS号1823

CAC approved. Small Date. N-1; DS b; R 2. Only 3 coins grade better. Lustrous mahogany-brown with reddish-violet accents shine on the silken surfaces. Ms. Liberty’s tresses are fully struck and razor sharp. This Small Date is free from all but the tiniest tick here or there, the eye appeal is wonderful.

In 1840 the U.S. Mint struck Large Cents with a Large and Small Date. The Small Date has significant spacing between all 4 digits in the date. The Large Date variety has the 8 and the 4 very close and almost touching, also the 4 and the 0 digit are touching.

The Small Date variety is scarce in all uncirculated grades. Coins displaying any original red brown or red surfaces are considered rare.
