- Lot 213 1831 N-4 R3 Medium Letters PCGS graded AU53.Choice glossy medium chocolate brown with frosty mint luster in protected areas, especially on the reverse. Faint hints of faded mint red remain visible around a couple of the stars. Only a few trivial contact marks from flawless. The best identifying marks are a tiny rim nick under the second 1 in the date and another over the first A in AMERICA. Nicely struck E-MDS, before any of the fine die cracks form at stars 8 & 9. The obverse fields are hard and slightly reflective. This cent has outstanding eye appeal. Called EF40 and tied for CC#5 in the Bland census. Noyes says VF35 net VF30 and tied for CC#10, his photo #25640 (perhaps the lower grade was a result of a substandard photo). Our grade is EF40 Choice. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 2; 2 finer: 1 in 55, 1 in 58. PCGS #37000.Estimated Value $1,000 - UP Ex Howard R. Newcomb, J. C. Morgenthau 5/16/1945:625-Floyd T. Starr, Stack's 6/13/1984:248-Wesley A.
