Description
1849 Cent, PR64 Red and Brown
Rare Proof-Only N-18
1849 1C PR64 Red and Brown PCGS. N-18, R.6. Our EAC Grade
PR64. The date varies in relief, perhaps due to a defective
gang punch. The usual reverse die for proof cents of the era,
identified by a die scratch on the rim near the E in UNITED. A rare
proof-only variety. The strike is crisp and there is no hint of
abrasions. Orange-gold outlines design elements while the exposed
fields and high points are steel-gray. One small spot above the
flag of the 1 provides an identifier. A small, narrow
strike-through (as coined) rests above star 1. PCGS estimates 15 to
20 proofs of this date are known. That firm has a population of 13
pieces but some may represent resubmissions over the past 27 years.
The NGC Census lists an additional three pieces.Ex: Stack's (1/2009), lot 84; Stack's (7/2009), lot 187.
