详细说明: Lot 203 1825 N-7 R3 Repunched 5. Double Profile.PCGS graded AU-55.Glossy very dark olive and steel brown with frosty flowline luster covering the fields and protected areas. The notable defects are a tiny nick just right of the eye, a pinprick off the left end of the line below CENT, and a thin scuff of fine hairline scratches over the N in ONE. LDS, but not quite the latest state. The die crack from the curl at star 13 to the dentils right of the date is clear and rim cud breaks extend from above star 4 clockwise to the bottom of star 11. In addition, a fine but clear die crack reaches from the curl on the forehead to the upper right point of star 4. The terminal rim cud breaks from star 12 to the date have not formed on this example. The repunching on the 5 remains clear. A very thin double profile caused by die bounce shows on the bottom of the nose, lips, and throat. Great eye appeal in spite of the dark color. Called AU55 net AU50 and tied for CC#5 in the Noyes census, his photo #21386. Bland says AU55 and tied for CC#3 among the confirmed examples in his census. Our grade is AU50.
