- Exquisite Gem 1855 N-4 Cent
1855 Braided Hair Cent. N-4. Rarity-1. Upright 5s. MS-66+ RD (PCGS).
Outstanding quality and eye appeal for this popular type variety from the later Braided Hair cent series. Frosty surfaces are bathed in rich, vivid rose-red mint color, the faintest trace of mellowing confined to the central reverse. Sharply struck both in the centers and around much of the peripheries, although isolated portions of the obverse border are a bit soft. Pristine-looking surfaces are virtually devoid of contact, and we mention a few minor spots within the top of Liberty's portrait and at the chin solely for provenance concerns. Thanks to the dispersal of a large hoard of Choice and Gem Mint State examples, the 1855 Newcomb-4 variety is one of the most popular high grade type candidates in the Braided Hair cent series. This one is far finer than most, and worthy of a strong premium. Grellman Die State a, Noyes A/A.
