- Lustrous Gem 1850 N-19 Braided Hair Cent
Single Finest Known 1850 Cent, PCGS/CAC MS-66 RD
1850 Braided Hair Cent. N-19. Rarity-2. Noyes Die State C (N-16)/C. MS-66 RD (PCGS). CAC.
The Newcomb-19 is one of 28 die pairings of the date. It is also known as N-16 in its later state. This example is from a late state of both dies, with all tiny die markers now missing save for some light lines at NI on the reverse, and with heavy die erosion evident at the rims (N-16). It is sharply struck throughout down to the tiniest of details. Fully brilliant mint orange surfaces exhibit robust cartwheel luster and exceptional eye appeal. Absolutely worthy of the assigned grade. Noyes ranks this piece as the finest seen, as does McCawley-Grellman. Bland's Census terminates at 1839. The Noyes grade comes in at MS-68 and McCawley -Grellman lists it as MS-67. Called MS-68 in the EAC Census.
PCGS# 405906.
Provenance: From Ira & Larry Goldbergs' sale of the Ted Naftzger Collection, Part III, September 2009, lot 1001. Earlier ex: Richard S. Herman, 1983.
