Description
1840 Cent, MS66 Red and Brown
Large Date, N-10, None Finer at PCGS
1840 1C Large Date, N-10, R.2, MS66 Red and Brown PCGS Gold
Shield. Large Date without hole in ear, and the curl over the 4
is blunt. The 1840 Large Date cent is marginally more available
than its Small Date counterpart. Still, most coins are seen in the
Brown color category. About 10% of survivors feature enough
copper-orange color to qualify as Red and Brown. Of those, most are
in MS64 and MS65 condition. Premium Gems are significant rarities,
with only three so-graded at PCGS in this category and none finer
for all Large Date varieties (12/18). This coin may be the sole
finest among N-10 representatives. Copper-orange dominates both
sides, with amber-gold, violet, and steel-blue serving as accents.
The surfaces are exceptionally lustrous and unabraded, and strike
detail is strong. A few unimportant carbon spots occur on the
reverse. Our EAC grade MS63.Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 395847, Base PCGS# 1821, Greysheet# 241352)
Weight: 13.48 grams
