Description
Superb Gem 1820 Large Date Cent
N-13, Tied for Finest Certified
1820 1C Large Date MS67 Brown NGC. N-13, R.1. The familiar
Randall Hoard variety with a multiply repunched L in LIBERTY and
heavy die cracks (as made) that connect the stars. The famous hoard
consisted of a buried keg of Mint State large cents dated 1816 to
1820 that was found in 1868 by a Georgia merchant. Most of the
hoard eventually ended up in the possession of John Swan Randall, a
Norwich, N.Y. collector who was prominent in hobby circles in the
1870s. This attractive specimen features olive-brown patina
interspersed with considerable mint red. The design elements are
sharply struck, save for the usual softness on the star centers.
Remarkably clean and well preserved. While numerous Uncirculated
examples of this issue are extant, few can compare with the
outstanding quality of this Superb Gem. MRB MS63. Census: 3 in 67
Brown, 0 finer (3/10).Ex: New York Signature (Heritage, 6/2005), lot 5050, which realized $3,450.(Registry values: N1)
