Description

1846 25C MS63 NGC. Briggs 2-D, R.6. Attributed by the 6 in the date being punched too low, then corrected; an extra knob shows between the knob and loop of the final 6. Another diagnostic is a fine die crack that runs from the dentils to the left of the date through the base of the date, up to Liberty's toe and into the dentils below star 13. This issue is fairly common in all grades up to XF. AUs are scarce and UNCs are rare. The MS63 specimen we offer here is nearly white, showing just a touch of color along some of the borders. Lustrous surfaces reveal sharply struck design elements, and a few trivial but grade defining marks in the left obverse field and on Liberty's portrait. Population: 8 in 63, 9 finer (9/04).
