Description
Condition Census 1829 Newcomb-3 Cent
1829 1C Medium Letters MS62 Brown NGC. AU50 EAC. N-3, High R.3. This variety is almost always found bluntly struck. As a result, just a touch of wear yields the appearance of a middle or lower grade coin. The Condition Census, therefore, is lower than would be expected for a variety of this rarity. This example has a very sharp strike, unusually so for the variety, and is among the finest known. It is approximately equal to the Jack Robinson coin (called third finest) in terms of actual grade, but far finer overall with a much sharper strike. Both sides have full and crisp border details. The surfaces are smooth and attractive with olive-brown color accented by lighter tan around the devices. The obverse has a die crack through the first four stars on left and the last three on the right. On the reverse, the tops of all three As are partially or completely filled.Ex: Stack's (10/78), lot 617; Roy Harte Collection (Bowers and Ruddy, 1/83), lot 589.(#1666)(Registry values: P1)
