Description
1851 Cent, Good Details
Extremely Rare N-44, FS-302
1851 1C N-44, FS-302, R.7 -- Damage -- PCGS Genuine. Good
Details. The "Pillowed Die" variety. Apparently, the dies were
improperly annealed, and promptly sank as coinage began, likely the
reason for the extreme rarity of the die pairing. Specific
repunching on the uprights of the 1s in the date is also
diagnostic. The medium brown surfaces are occasionally
microgranular, and a retained lamination is below the C in CENT.
Included with the lot is a J.R. Grellman card, dated 9/26/1994,
which describes the present cent as "nicks + flattened slightly,
8+/5." Our EAC grade Good 5.Ex: American Gold and Silver, Plaistow, NH, 9/1994; Joe D'Agostino; Crescent Bay Rarities Collection (Superior, 2/2007), lot 254.
