- 1835 Modified Matron Head Cent. N-16. Rarity-2. Head of 1836. MS-62+ BN (NGC). Satiny copper-brown surfaces with streaks of steely-olive vertically bisecting the obverse. A handsome piece, a bold strike and remarkably smooth appearance for the assigned grade further enhance its appeal. The 1835 Head of 1836 is the first in the so-called Modified Matron Head cent series that actually includes several different portrait styles. All of these are likely attributed to Christian Gobrecht (although a few of the earliest may represent the work of William Kneass), and they are all a modification of the original Matron Head motif by Robert Scot. This series contains a fascinating array of Guide Bookvarieties crammed into just four years of coinage activity, culminating in Gobrecht's Braided Hair motif that the Mint adopted in 1839 for ongoing use. This NGC-certified Mint State Newcomb-16 is a nice coin to represent the 1835 Head of 1836. PCGS# 37069. NGC ID: 225S. Click here for certification details from NGC.
