Description
1856 Slanted 5 Large Cent, PR64 Brown
N-5, Outstanding Proof Type Coin
1856 1C Slanted 5, N-5, Low R.5, PR64 Brown PCGS. CAC. The
only known proof dies. John Grellman (2001) suggests this
proof-only variety was struck soon after large cent production
ceased in 1857. A melange of reddish-tan, gold-brown, and
aqua-green adorns exceptionally well-preserved surfaces; the only
pedigree-marker we can find is an inoffensive mark on the left part
of Liberty's neck. A well-executed strike imparts outstanding
definition to the design features. Population: 5 in 64 Brown, 3
finer (11/15). Our EAC grade PR60.Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 2/2007), lot 2176.(Registry values: P1)
