August 2011 Chicago ANA - Rarities Night

详细说明: 1821 Matron Head Cent. N-1. Rarity-6. Proof-64 BN (PCGS). CAC. Medium olive-brown with chestnut highlights and with splashes of mint-orange in and around the devices. The reverse is chiefly olive with splashes of neon-blue iridescence. Sharply struck, as should be expected, with all design elements crisply presented. When held at the proper angle to a light source the fields become intensely reflective. No major marks are present, though we note a lintmark descending from the underside of Liberty's shoulder and a faint, tiny planchet fissure as struck, above the O in ONE on the reverse, with another small dash-like flaw in the field beneath the O. Other than that, the coin is exquisite for the grade. While not the greatest rarity from the era, the present piece will still be a welcomed addition to its next cabinet.
