- Gem Full Red Uncirculated 1842 Large Cent
1842 Braided Hair Cent. N-6. Rarity-1. Large Date. MS-65 RD (NGC).
This lovely 1842 Large Date cent is a frosty and lustrous Gem with soft rose-orange color throughout. The strike is bold and the surfaces exhibit nothing more serious than a tiny reverse planchet flaw, as struck, in the field near the first S in STATES. Date numerals progressively lower from left to right in a "stair-step" alignment. The present specimen is the only RD example of the date certified by NGC within any grade. As choice for the grade as one could hope, and a coin that holds up admirably to careful magnified examination. Forming a collection of Braided Hair large copper cents from 1839 to 1857 is an interesting way to start on a larger holding of this popular denomination. Using the basic varieties in the Guide Bookis ideal. If you do this, here is a coin that will fill in one of the spaces in a deluxe manner.
Provenance: From the Collection of Thaddeus A. Tatum III. Earlier from our Philadelphia ANA Sale of August 2012, lot 11196.
NGC Census (all die marriages of the issue): just 1 in all grades with the RD color designation.
PCGS# 1837. NGC ID: 2268.
