- Lot 166 1830 N-6 R4 Medium Letters. PCGS graded AU-58+.Lustrous light olive and sea-green. Sharply struck on both sides, which is quite unusual for this variety. All the stars (except stars 6-8) have full radial lines and there is no weakness in the hair or leaves in the wreath. Looks mint state but there is a hint of friction on the highest points of the devices. The only marks are a thin wisp of darker toning in the field from the mouth to star 3 and a hairline scratch very well hidden in the hair over the B in LIBERTY. E-MDS without the delicate die crack from the bust tip. Fine die clashmarks show on both sides. A wonderful example of this very popular "Redbook" variety. Graded AU55 and tied for second finest known in the Noyes census, his photo #21923. Our grade is AU55. Only one example is known in mint state: the Naftzger Collection coin we graded as MS63 that sold as lot #242 in our 2/1/2009 sale where it brought $57,500. A great example of the 1830 Medium Letters variety, perfect for an advanced registry set. And it comes with a nice provenance. The attribution and Doug Bird Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1; 1 finer in 67.(PCGS # 37043) Value $10,000 - UP Ex Robert J.
