Description

1823 1C Restrike MS64 Brown PCGS. CAC. N-3, R.2. The middle die state without a radial crack between stars 7 and 8. The rusted and broken dies were initially sold by the Mint as scrap metal. Numismatist Joseph Mickley eventually purchased the obverse die and muled it with an 1813 reverse to produce examples of this conditionally rare date prior to the Civil War. This is a satiny chocolate-brown near-Gem with powder-blue and lilac undertones. Our EAC grade MS60.
