1820/19 Coronet Head Cent. PCGS graded MS-64 Brown. The obverse is lustrous bluish steel and light olive brown with some lighter brown toning covering most of the field before the portrait. The reverse is lustrous medium brown with delicate overtones of light bluish steel. No spots or stains, the there is only a light touch of friction on the highest points keeping this cent from full mint state. The only marks are four dull rim nicks at TES-O. M-LDS. The undertype 19 is still visible, although those numerals are dull, and both sides are covered with microscopic lumps from fine die rust, strongest on the portrait. Excellent luster and has the eye appeal of a choice mint state cent. Called MS60 and CC#3 among the confirmed examples in the Bland census. Noyes says AU55 Choice and tied for CC#7, his photo #25232. The reverse of this example is plated in the Newcomb book. Comes with a great provenance, and the Newcomb collection pillbox is included with the lot. Our grade is AU58. Pop 1; 1 in 65 BN.
