详细说明

The SOLE FINEST certified in the BN category, this GEM S-294 is of exceptional quality in every way! For the date and type, this wonderful GEM retains as much ORIGINAL cartwheel luster as you could ever imagine, especially for a coin with the BN designation. Accents of brick red blend with rich chocolate brown, violet, and tinges of olive and apricot/rose. The devices are knife sharp on both sides. Each of the details in the hair, face, stars, dimples, and wreath are very sharp and fully defined. The eye appeal is superb. The final issue of the "early" large cents, the second to last Sheldon-numbered die variety. These Classic head large cents, designed by John Reich were rarely saved at the time of issue, and most are found in lower grades. Even those graded Mint State do not display the type of lustrous surfaces that this one has. This is the FINEST numerically graded in ANY color designation, and the finest RB is a 65+. PCGS has graded a total of ZERO in RED. This issue is so tough to find in nice enough grades that it was missing from the D. Brent Pogue Collection. We are pleased to present this extremely important 1814 large cent; suited for any serious cabinet of early copper or any SUPERB type set. PCGS 1, NGC 1. This is NOT the NGC MS66 BN from the Gene Gardner Collection sold in May 2015. Collector's Universe lists a value of $90,000. This GEM has a great look and will see very strong bidding from type or Large Cent collectors wanting the very finest piece for their collection! Cert. Number 35585552 PCGS # 1573
