1837 N-9 R1 EF45+. Beaded Hair Cord. Near Terminal Die State. EF-45+. Very attractive glossy medium brown with frosty flowline luster covering the fields and protected areas. Just a few trivial contact marks and absolutely choice except for a small, dull nick on the chin. Still very close to AU50. Near terminal die state with a series of strong rim cuds extend from star 11 down to star 13 (in the terminal state these cuds reach to below the 37 in the date). All the die cracks are stronger and there are some curious die scratches near the dentil tips at star 2 and between stars 3 & 4. These odd marks near the dentils might look like circulation damage at first glance, but they are die damage that remains constant on all the very late die state examples seen. Removed from an NGC slab graded MS62BN (NGC label included, and it shows the attribution and Reiver provenance). DWH #2950. Estimated Value $200-UP. Ex Smilski 2/10/90-Jules Reiver, Heritage 1/24/06:20080. Categories:
