- Lot 266 1848 N-31 R3. PCGS graded MS-64+ Brown.Highly lustrous bluish steel brown and light olive with generous traces of faded mint color showing in protected areas on the reverse. A beautiful cent, virtually flawless, with unbroken satiny mint frost covering the obverse. The obverse is a solid gem while the reverse is not quite as impressive by comparison since it doesn't have the same blast of luster. But the reverse is flawless otherwise. The best identifying marks are a microscopic tick on the throat and a speck of darker toning over the E in CENT. M-LDS, die state d, with three dentils fused together by crumbling over the R in AMERICA. Called MS64 and CC#1 in the Noyes census, his photo #30605.
